Tonya Harding rises through the ranks of competitive figure skating only to find disgrace when her husband tries to eliminate her rival. Margot Robbie portrays Harding in this Craig Gillespie-directed film–titled I, Tonya (Neon)–written by Steven Rogers and edited by Tatiana S. Riegel. Based on an unbelievably true story, I, Tonya is part tongue-in-cheek documentary, part offbeat biopic, part comedy and part drama. The film also depicts parental and spousal abuse inflicted on Harding, eliciting some understanding of, even a bit of empathy for the skater who in real life became infamous when she and her husband were implicated in the knee-smashing attack on her prime U.S. competitor in the rink, Nancy Kerrigan, just prior to the 1994 Winter Olympics.
