Listen I'm not even normally the kind of guy who gives two shits about fashion, which is why I need you to understand just how much I really do mean it when I say that Maria Coughlin's God-damn letterman jacket/blue plaid shirtdress/librarian glasses combo lives in my mind rent free. Unbelievable Truth more like Unbelievable Fit.

And NGL I do wanna try it, gender identity be damned. What even is that, gender identity? I def never got one of those, Australia Post never sends me the shit I need.

The Unbelievable Truth (Hal Hartley, 1989)

"A barely imaginable horror lies just below the surface of our normal life and threatens to break through at any time. The inescapable truth about our lives today is that at any given moment each and every one of us could become a broken and confused animal scratching at the surface of the earth for some small sigh of life."

Adrienne Shelly was a rising star in the American acting scene, renowned for her performances in The Unbelievable Truth and Waitress, which she also wrote and directed. Unfortunately, her bright future was cut short on November 1, 2006, when her husband, Andrew, found her lifeless body in their Manhattan apartment.

Adrienne was discovered hanging from the shower by a bed sheet fashioned into a noose around her neck. Although money was missing from her wallet and the door was unlocked, the NYPD initially deemed her death a suicide. 

However, Andrew adamantly believed that Adrienne would never have taken her own life, as she was content with her personal and professional life and adored her daughter. He spoke fondly of her, describing her as kind, warm, loving, intelligent, humorous, and talented. He further stated that she was his closest confidante and the person he envisioned growing old with.

At Andrew's urging, authorities reopened the case, and a new examination of the crime scene uncovered a shoe print on the toilet that did not belong to Adrienne or her family. The print matched that of 19-year-old Diego Pillco, a construction worker who had been in the apartment complex on the day of her death. Pillco eventually confessed to attacking Adrienne and hanging her from the shower to make it appear as though she had committed suicide. Shockingly, the autopsy revealed that she was still alive when he tied her up.

Pillco was charged with first-degree manslaughter and sentenced to 25 years in prison.
