The Amanda Knox Story: Hayden Panettiere And Colin Firth Debate The Entertaining Murder

HAYDEN Panettiere is to portray Meredith Kercher’s murderer Amanda Knox in a chocolate box film TV called The Amanda Knox Story. In what still passes for reality, Raffaele Sollecito, Rudy Guede and Knox sexually assaulted Kercher and slashed the British girl’s throat with a knife in Perugia. That was way, way, way back in 2007.

Knox got 26 years jail – Sollecito was sentenced to 25 years while Guede got 30 years. Guede, who is black and from the Ivory Coast has not been heard of. But Knox, who is blonde and American, is a cause celebre for anyone wanting to bash the Italians and tap into a bit of sexy-drug-fulled scandal.

So. Can a young, fit, sexually active American be a murderer in a picturesque setting with coffee shops and an aqueduct? Well, yes.

Colin Firth is to play a journalist investigating the mystery surrounding the murder of British student Meredith Kercher.

It will be directed by Michael Winterbottom:

“The idea would be that ultimately there isn’t an answer, it’s all a puzzle,” said Winterbottom, on a scouting visit to Perugia. “When you read about the case, there seems to be no convincing explanation for what happened. We are certainly not going to be saying ‘This person is innocent, or that person is guilty’. But we will be asking ‘Is this system of justice fair?'”

And what better way to debate justice and truth than with a fictionalised account of what might have happened?

In other news, Panettiere has been having her face licked by a young wolf at the screening of the new animated film Alpha and Omega at the BFI Southbank in London. The wolf is a pretty creature who looks incapable of murder. Panettiere is the voice of the alpha wolf with a heart of gold.

Panettiere risks being typecast…
