In a Texas suburb in 1980, churchgoing housewife Candy Montgomery kills her friend Betty Gore with an axe, and the question becomes not who did it but how a friendship curdled into forty-one blows. The five-episode Hulu miniseries 'Candy', created by Robin Veith and Nick Antosca, stars Jessica Biel against type as Montgomery and Melanie Lynskey as Gore, reconstructing the affair, the confrontation and the sensational trial that followed. Released on consecutive nights in 2022, it dramatizes a true crime that has fascinated America for decades without pretending to settle it.
