The movie version was great. The boyfriend in the movie was the actor who played Charles on MASH!

I saw it,too, yet even 'Charles' couldn't do a convincing job of how her 2nd husband was conned into thinking Marie was her own dead twin sister! Sad to say, in real life, the 2nd husband stuck by her even after everything was revealed (and her own children did all they could to get away from her). ..and later took his own life after her still puzzling death!

Her 2nd husband killed himself? WOW!
Do you know where I can find these details.
Thanks.

I never even knew they made a movie out of this case. I would have watched it.

On the imdb site for the made-for-TV movie about Hilley, a reviewer mentioned that the second husband was killed in a bizarre robbery incident in 1989.

It was an early 1990s made-for-TV movie on one of the three big U.S. networks (ABC, I think). I doubt that you would be able to find it on DVD or anything. You would probably have to hope that someone reruns it someday but I know that I haven't seen it on TV since it originally aired.
