Allison Janney thinks Tonya Harding treated unfairly
Margot Robbie isn't the only star of the 'I, Tonya' movie who thinks that the former figure skater's story is remembered incorrectly by the world.
Allison Janney, in an interview with ESPN, said she thinks that the figure skater's story deserves a correction in the American psyche.
"People who remember it now think she actually had a baseball bat and took it to Nancy Kerrigan's shins," she said. "After this movie I think you'll walk away with a lot more empathy for her because you'll understand where she came from."
Janney plays Harding's temperamental mother in the movie, LaVona Golden. She told Entertainment Weekly that screenwriter Steven Rogers wasn't able to track down Golden, who is now estranged from her daughter.
"He tried everywhere, everywhere led to a dead end," Janney recalls to EW. "Tonya wasn't really interested in knowing where her mother was, or didn't really care."
