Interesting version of this famous crime. One of the great "unsolved crimes" of history. I personally believe that Lizzie did it but just like Kennedy's killing, the alternate ideas will never die.

Lizzie Borden took an axe.... I love this one. It flashes between present day and 1892. It is done very well. Roberta Maxwell plays a wonderful Lizzie Borden.

Stories seem to grow taller on down the line. The actual number of times the victims were wacked with the hatchet was not 40 and 41. So the song isn't even correct, so the mystery remains.
