What We're Watching: Laurie


United States Of Tara. Starring Toni Collette, John Corbett, Rosemarie DeWitt, Keir Gilchrist and Brie Larson.

Toni Collette
gives an amazing performance as Tara Gregson, a woman who struggles with Dissociative Identity Disorder. Tara spends her time working as an artist, trying to keep her dysfunctional family together, and searching to find answers as to what traumatic experience in her life caused her to splinter into alter personalities.
While the content can be very dark, depressing and confusing, the actors bring bits of light and love into this show. The writers did extensive research on this disorder and the actors treated the content with extreme care and compassion. Dark humor is used to portray the human struggle of understanding and coping with Dissociative Identity Disorder. Phenomenal performances and an incredible storyline. DVD TV-United
