8/23: Full Circle is a terrible Danielle Steel movie.

What's the point of watching it if the main character is unlikeable? For her actions, Tana is a shoo-in for the Slut of the Year award. After rejecting Harry so many times, she was all over his father, found Drew to be no problem despite being separated from his wife at the moment, and married an older man who could be, for all I know, her uncle. Earlier, she was going after Yael McBee, but he got arrested in time.

Hence, why does Tana keep turning Harry down? What's wrong with him? As a matter of fact, if she accepted his proposal, he would've never been paralyzed in the first place and therefore stayed alive. Now, the poor sucker died without knowing the truth about Tana and his father. Some best friend she is.

Elsewhere, none of the subplots is appropriately developed. There's no emotional growth happening. Everybody is the same, no matter what. The rape incident does nothing for Tana in the long run. She being ultimately okay with her mother who denied it ever happened is absolutely bizarre.

All in all, Full Slut is more like it.
