In honour of Katie Douglas' 25th birthday last Thursday, I'm rewatching Believe Me: The Abduction of Lisa McVey. It's moved from Netflix to Disney+, where I've nicely searched for the film via Katie's name so the statistics show why people are watching this (as opposed to any recommendation by algorithm). I've got my tea and popcorn ready.

It's a harrowing story played intensely and touchingly by Katie. The deep misery her character Lisa is in even before she's abducted, then the strength of character Katie portrays to fight her way out of it, make a lasting impression. And it's a true story.

More films of Katie should be released in my country, she's certainly made more.
