The movie would of been 5 hours long if you included every skater Tonya ever competed against. Midori should of been mentioned (and probably was in a scene that got cut since an actress is credited for playing her). It's Tonya's story about her skating career, how she was treated by her family and the usfsa, and the media. The hard copy reporter was representative of most media (tabloid and legitimate news) at the time. Christine Brennan didn't need to be mentioned and is not an expert (except in her own mind).Oh wow those are great marks! You’re quite right, that wasn’t portrayed accurately at all!
I didn’t mean to start a fuss over people not being named in the movie and I don’t think I explained what I meant very well. It was just that they did mention a world podium sweep of Kristi, Tonya and Nancy but then failed to mention that the same Kristi won the Olympics. And they mentioned Baiul was the reigning world champion, but not that she then beat Nancy in the Olympics (I think, not 100% sure on that!) The reason I thought an Ito mention would have been fitting is because she also landed triple axels around the same time as Tonya. But everyone is right that really it isn’t a huge deal, I still enjoyed the movie very much and would watch it again!
