I love this movie so much

If you don't like this, we can't be friends.

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

Recap: Ellena Roberts is arrested but insists that everything must be a misunderstanding. She had an affair with a successful surgeon and got a little over-zealous when he broke it off. At least that is her story. The surgeon, David Stillman, has a completely different story. He claims Ellena harasses him and his family and that the affair never took place. Lawyer Sara Miller offers to represent Ellena and finds her in the unenviable position to decide what is the truth, Ellena's version or David's.Comments: Often when you see a made for television movie you dismiss it before you even see it. Sometimes that is a mistake, and so it is in this case. This was a very interesting and intriguing movie that kept me alert the entire time. What is most interesting that the movie actually seems unbiased. Often enough the movie chooses side for the audience, we are clearly shown who is the good guy to root for and who is the bad guy to loathe and fight against. For once, this movie lets both parties, literally in a court, present their cases. And both stories make sense. At least initially there is precious little that indicates whom to believe. Which is interesting because in real life, in real court, this must be a common situation. There are two versions, both mutually exclusive, and you must decide which one is the truth. And in this movie you get to see which one, but it is not presented right away so it is an interesting tale to see.It is a good cast, even if few of them is famous. But Jenna Elfman do deserve an extra mention because her role could not be easy to do, and she pulls it off spectacularly.This movie is much better than expected, well worth to rent if you wish to see something else than a fast paced action. Do not dismiss it beforehand.7/10

even if you are not a major fan, she actually delivers in this suspense/psychodrama, which was based on a true story.She basically portrays a sales rep who encounters a neurosurgeon, (portrayed by Sam Robards) and has occasion to date him. Look for a very good cameo role with Lisa Edelstein ("House, M.D.") as Elfman's friend/alter ego.The situation escalates as Elfman becomes obsessed with Dr. Stillman (Robards). The setting is in Chicago, and several of the scenes are well done, especially considering this is a made for TV movie.If you are a fan of Elfman, she was also very good in the film paired with Kellie Martin, and Patti LuPone, regarding addiction.

Why only 127 votes on IMDb? I cannot understand this, for what I thought was a very good movie. Perhaps IMDb could encourage members to vote more often as too few and the total vote is rather meaningless.It may have been originally made for TV but it is freely available from video shops on DVD, so a lot of people must have seen Obsessed.The story & suspense was great, and Jenna Elfman beautiful, an excellent actress and just right for the part as the lover. It is cleverly directed as the story changes one hundred percent to the (slightly predictable) ending. The main criticism is to how the doctor was able to resist the advances of the sexy girl. Most men couldn't !It was such a sad ending when Jenna's mind was shown to be so sick, and instead of being put into a mental home was imprisoned for two years.

I saw this movie again on d.v.d and I have to say I don't know what I was thinking when I said I didn't like it. I now see things in it that I didn't see before. Things such as, romance, sexy things, legal stuff, etc, The following things were great, acting, costumes, production, photography, directing, script and music. Jenna Elfman especially did a great job as Eleena Roberts. Ellena Roberts was an unstable, self-centered, spoiled rotten brat , who did whatever she wanted, whenever she wanted, without any regard for the happiness, safety, welfare, and privacy of others. I knew right from the very start that she was guilty. She did annoying, stupid, and weird things. These things included, having tea with the district attorney's wife, leaving weird messages on the judge's answering machine, flirting with the prison doctor, and showed up numerous times at the doctor's home, and his conferences, and harassed his family. She also followed them around, wrote them letters, made numerous phone calls a day. She has all the signs of erotomania. This movie is based on a true story. I wonder what ever happened to the real woman.
