Padded series short on substance
“The Lizzie Borden Chronicles” is the sequel to “Lizzie Borden Took an Ax,” a 2014 Lifetime original TV movie, and deals with what happened after Lizzie’s controversial acquittal of her father and stepmother’s horrific murder. Christina Ricci once again portrays Lizzie in this eight-part limited series.<br /><br />The story picks up in 1893, four months after the accused Fall River, Massachusetts, ax murderer’s acquittal. Lizzie is trying to return to normal life with her sister, Emma (Clea DuVall). Though the women should inherit their father’s wealth, his business partner, William Almy (John Heard), claims that he is owed more than the entire estate is worth. The sisters’ illegitimate half-brother, William (Andrew Howard), is also claiming part of the inheritance. Pinkerton detective Charlie Siring (Cole Hauser) is reinvestigating the double murder, but it’s not initially clear if he is seeking justice or money.<br /><br />Because there is not enough substance to justify eight installments, there is far too much padding. Attempts are made to show that Lizzie is capable of new and violent murders, but history tells us that she never killed, or was accused of killing, for the rest of her life. Here’s an example of producers’ trying to milk more dollars from a popular TV movie. The attempt to create sensation where historically there never was any becomes transparent and ineffective.<br /><br />Bonus features on the DVD release include deleted scenes and a gag reel.
