Elizabeth Montgomery in "The Legend of Lizzie Borden" - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Has anyone has seen this? I saw it awhile ago and thought Elizabeth gave a good performance as Lizzie Borden. Unfortunetly, they haven't released this on DVD, but they really should, because it's a great movie.

yes she is awesome in that, but I believe her best dramatic performance is a tv movie that was VERY CONTROVERSIAL called "A Case of Rape." Did anyone see that???????

I've seen these movies, both of which were very good. EM was one talented lady, not to mention drop dead gorgeous.

I've only seen Lizzie Borden, and that's when it originally aired. I barely remember seeing it.

There was also a great movie she did a long time ago abt her playing the head nurse at a nursing home and she was abusive, manipulative and eventually killed some of the patients. One of the patients caused his own death so she could be caught for the deaths of other patients. I can't recall the name of it, but she was so good in this movie because just like Lizzie Borden, it called for her to play a wicked person.

I really want to see her in those movies! I remember hearing about them on the Bewitched E! True Hollywood story, which I've seen like 10 times! The movies look good, and the roles are such a change from Samantha Stevens!

That's because she was doing roles that would distance herself from the Samantha character. She did a good job too.

I saw Elizabeth Montgomery in the telefilms The Legend of Lizzie Borden ('75) and Between the Darkness and the Dawn ('85).

I've seen the advertisement for Mrs. Sundance when it was to originally air.
