Description

A chilling mini-series based on the 1985 true story of David A. Brown, a computer whiz, who orchestrated his wife's murder with the help of two trusting but totally manipulated teenage girls. Brown (played by Clancy Brown) masterminded this bizarre murder plot by luring his teenage daughter (Moira Kelly), and 17-year-old sister-in-law (Sheryl Lee) into the cold-blooded shooting of his wife. As the lies are peeled away, layer after layer, his sinister web of treachery, deceit, and manipulation is finally shattered in a hailstorm of staggering revelations. The gripping tale of "an almost perfect murder" -- an unflinching portrait of a terrifying killer -- LOVE, LIES AND MURDER is an unforgettable look at one of the most shocking crimes of the last three decades. For the first time on DVD, LOVE, LIES, AND MURDER proves once and for all that fact is truly stranger than fiction.

AWESOME Movie!
The guy in this movie is well played and extremely twisted. It is a joy to watch the movie and you want him to get exactly what he deserves...however, at no point is he truly a monster. He is just manipulative enough to make people do as he wants them to do...It is unreal to think that somewhere out there is a girl that was raised by this man and went through all that he put her through.... ... show more

One Sad, tragic story and true story!
Besides being a really good, albeit, tragic story, the acting is superb, in my opinion. I have seen the movie at least three times and finally decided to purchase the DVD. How SAD that a father would actually con his own daughter into killing her step-mother is unbelievable!! The worst part of it all is it really happened!!! I have the book that Ann Rule wrote about the case, as well ("If You Really Loved Me"). It is one unforgettable movie that you must see. Read the book, too. ... show more

This is the Craziest based on reality murder crime I have ever saw!
Update: I just wanted to say that I received this DVD and it works Great, I was very happy since I have been waiting for a long time to obtain this movie on DVD. :) This a 1991 "Lifetime Channel" True Life movie about a man, David Brown, who convinces his daughter and young sister-in-law that his wife is conspiring to kill him so he convinces them to kill his wife first, then he starts having an affair with his 16 yr old sister-in-law and later marries her only to plan to kill her for the insurance money(just like his first wife), all the while his 14 yr old daughter, Cinnamon Brown, was arrested for the crime because her father told her she won't get as much time because she is a minor 4 years later she starts to realize that her father is a liar and tricked her so she works with two investigators to get her father to confess, they already suspected that there was something more to the story than what Cinnamon was confessing to, with there investigation they uncover the twisted private world of David Brown himself unfolded with astonishing clarity -- revealing a trail of perverse love, twisted secrets, and evil mind games. A complex and often dangerous investigation suggested a horrifying scenario: was the seemingly bland David Brown really a stone-cold killer -- who convinced his own daughter to prove her love by killing for him? A man who turned young women into his own personal slaves, who collected nearly $1 million in insurance money, and married his dead wife's teenage sister, David Brown was a sociopath who would stop at nothing...a deadly charmer who almost got away with everything. This is a Bizarre story and unbelievably a True one. Anne Rule wrote a book based on the case called "If You Really Loved Me". This is definately a must see! The movie stars, Clancy Brown (Shawshank Redeption, Highlander), Moira Kelly, Sheryl Lee, Cynthia Nixon (Sex and the City), John Aston (Beverly Hills Cop) ... show more

Love, Lies and Murder Finally on dvd! :)
I'm so happy to finally have this movie on dvd. One of my favorite Lifetime movies.. My only complaint is that a part of the movie was changed slightly.. The part where Patty and Donna are making the bed and Sister Sledge is playing in the background. That part of the movie was slightly edited and the song was changed. But, other than that the movie seems okay. It's not a big deal.. I was just surprised they changed part of the movie being it has never been on dvd until now. I had this on dvd+r recorded off Liftime and before that on vhs years ago.. Don't really understand why they would do that unless due to a copyright issue or something.. Still happy to have Love, Lies and Murder on dvd! It's about time! :D ... show more

A true story about one evil man!!
I remember when I first saw this & how it pulled me in, I was 14 in 1985 as well, so Cinnamon Brown is the same age as me, this film is about a man named David Brown who was a master manipulator who convinces his 14 year old daughter & his 17 year old sister-in-law to partisipate in the murdering of his wife in March 1985, Cinnimon takes the blame & is sent away to a juvenile facility, meanwhile David collects on life insurance & moves into a bigger more fancy home, & manipulates his 17 year old sister-in-law, & eventually marries her too, & leaves his daughter to stay in prison to fend for herself, Clancy Brown (T.V.s "Lost") is very convincing as Brown, a very underated actor, Sheryl Lee(Vampires) is also convincing as the sister-in-law, but the real standout performance is Moira Kelly as Cinnamon, who had a few films after this, but never really made it big, she should have, John Ashton (Beverly Hills Cop) is great as the D.A. investigator who refused to give up on the case, Daivd Brown almost got away with the perfect murder, but when his daughter realizes that he no longer cares about her, she works with investigators to bring David to justice, there isn't much I can say that others haven't covered here, except to say that in 1990 after five years David was brought to justice & is now serving a life sentence in prison, I believe Cinnemon was released on her 25th birthday in 1995, I am assuming, haven't really researched what happened to her, the fact that this really happened is chilling to watch, great perfromances by everyone here, & one of the few T.V. films I wanted to own, Cynthia Nixon (Sex & the City) is here as well as the nanny that David has a romance with as well, this was truly a sick & twisted man, how anyone could do this to their own daughter is beyond me, but the ending is very satisfying. ... show more

Whatever happened to these people?
This movie is intriguing to me and I find myself watching it every time I find it while channel surfing. The idea of a father asking his young teenage daughter to murder his wife, her stepmother, makes a compelling story. David Brown, to say the least, is a sociopath. Clancy Brown did such a good job portratying sociopathic behavior that even now when I see him in other films, I always think about his haunting portrayal of David Brown. What I wonder now though is nearly 20 years after Linda Brown's murder, whatever became of Cinnamon Brown and Patty Baily, who were minors when Linda was shot to death. ... show more

WHAT A SICK PSYCHO FOR A FATHER!!!
Great movie!!! I remember watching this on NBC when I was 10 years old. That was back when the three major networks (ABC, NBC, and CBS ) showed true crime movies all the time. David Brown is a psychopathic killer. At his sentencing hearing on Monday, September 3, 1990, Orange County, California Superior Court Judge Donald McCartin called David Brown, "...a scary person ". I could not agree more! This piece of crap for a father only cared about himself! I can't believe that he didn't get the gas chamber!!! He should have!!! He used his own daughter to get what he wanted. He molested his sister -in -law and used her, too! Linda Bailey Brown loved David but he didn't love her at all! Not really!!! ... show more
