This might be the perfect time for a Tonya Harding biopic. Or rather, a Harding 'biopic,' one set some 23 years after the public's memory of the tabloid diva having drilled down to 'white-trash figure skater who had something to do with smashing the knee of her rival Nancy Kerrigan during training for the 1994 Winter Olympics.' I, Tonya – a raunchy, demented, dark-comic dazzler, snappily directed by Craig Gillespie ( Lars and the Real Girl) from an anything-goes script by Steven Rogers, gives Tonya (Margot Robbie in her best performance yet) a chance to prove her almost-innocence. How two star skaters turned into rivals – and changed the way the world watched the Olympics The film uses recreated interviews with those closest to the disgraced Olympian – felons and family members alike – who get a chance to speak up. The talking-heads lineup includes: her violent ex-husband, Jeff Gillooly (Sebastian Stan); his idiot cohort, Shawn Eckhardt (Paul Walter Hauser); her purportedly sane skating coach, Diane Rawlinson (Julianne Nicholson); and her demon mother from the hottest spot in Hades, LaVona Golden, played by a dead-solid-perfect Allison Janney as a cross between Marge Simpson and Attila the Hun. Who's telling the truth?

I, Tonya is a 2017 American biographical black comedy film directed by Craig Gillespie and written. The film also garnered five Critics' Choice Movie Awards. Director Craig Gillespie pulls off what would seem to be an impossible high-wire act. One of the year's best films.

According to Harding, 'There's no such thing as truth – I mean, it's all bullshit.' But watching these National Enquirer fugitives mix it up in a rush of sleazoid slapstick will leave your head spinning. Robbie turns her features hard – and her attitude harder – to play the queen of the triple axel. She never begs for sympathy, though we give it willingly thanks to the pow of the star's take on Harding as a woman who refuses to be a punchline.
