We're dying to relive it, except that Betty Badum is no longer reliving anything. I loved her carefully counting the tiny specks of glitter with a pair of oversized joke tweezers from Gordon Novelties (still the best store in showbusiness.)

She had begun an unsuccessful bid for freedom in the 1990's. Ms. Hindley was portrayed chillingly...
