American Crime Story: The Assassination of Gianni Versace (2018)






Fashion designer Gianni Versace, or Versayce if you're a certain Vegas stripper, was gunned down outside his Miami home on July 15, 1997 by Andrew Cunanan.  Versace was his fifth victim over a number of months.  Cunanan's crime spree spread from Minneapolis to Illinois to New Jersey to Miami before he took his own life on a houseboat.  He claimed to have met Versace at a San Fransisco club in 1990, but his family believe they hadn't met.   

Glee's Darren Criss showed some range in American Crime Story: The Assassination of Gianni Versace and rightfully earned him an Emmy Award.  It was produced by FX's go-to guy Ryan Murphy, who can tell a noncoherent like no other.  The mini-series received positive reviews but was also criticized for fictionalizing and sensationalizing certain events.
