Sometimes it works out for the best, others it completely wrecks the source material they’re working from. Movies and television shows based on real-life events (like Hulu’s The Act) are always bound to take liberties for the sake of storytelling. However, it’s possible that the Hulu series takes liberties which keep the story from being as dark as what happened in real life. (Photo by: Brownie Harris/Hulu) The Act has drawn a lot of attention for its depiction of a bazaar real story of a mother and her daughter. Dee Dee Blanchard (Patricia Arquette) and Gypsy Rose Blanchard (Joey King), shown. The Act - “Stay Inside” – Episode 104 - Gypsy’s getting older and Dee Dee is forced to new legal maneuvers to keep control of her “little girl.” But Dee Dee’s limited by her own health problems, and Gypsy goes to greater lengths than ever to connect with men and experience a sexual awakening.
