Pieces of Her follows Andy Oliver who's life is forever changed when she witnesses a mass shooting. But when her mother Laura saves the day and the footage goes viral, she must escape as her past comes back to haunt her. Starring Toni Collette.

Toni Collette is one of the most bankable actors in Hollywood today. From all the way back to Muriel's Wedding through to Unbelievable, anything she stars in is worth watching and Pieces of Her is no different.

So what is it all about? Pieces of Her is based on the 2018 thriller novel by New York Times bestselling author Karin Slaughter. Set in a sleepy Georgia town, it follows Andy Oliver as she celebrates her birthday at a local diner with her mother, Laura.

Moments later, she witnesses the unthinkable as a mass shooter enters the diner. After her mother attempts to stop a shooter from killing more victims, Andy notices that Laura (Toni Collette) has flipped the script and watches her violently dispose of the threat.


This random act of violence sets off an unexpected chain of events as video footage of the incident at the diner becomes a viral hit, exposing Laura's identity. Soon after, figures of her mother's past reappear and she is forced to go on the run.

Desperate for answers, Andy embarks on a dangerous journey to gather the pieces of her mother's past, on a journey to uncover her real identity but what other truths will she find?

  1. In my opinion, the dialogues and images were decoupaged in a way that suggested to the audience that Laura has a deep grudge against her father.
    And this grudge goes far beyond the limitations and oppressions that Laura’s father had in life
    has done, a grudge that makes Laura decide to kill her father.

    Now the writer of the series can use this idea for the second season of the series (Andy is Laura’s illegitimate child and Laura’s father, not Nick).
    Laura’s father used to pour sleeping pills in her glass every time under the pretext of drinking with her daughter and raped her, and the maid also knew about this.
    This issue can become the subject of the second season of this series and justify Laura’s avoidance and aggression towards Andy in the first season, because whenever Laura sees her daughter Andy, she remembers her father’s sexual assault, but her own motherly feelings also cannot be ignored, because it is true that Andi is the child of an illegitimate father-daughter relationship, but Laura still considers her her daughter and loves her, this idea can create many challenges for the second season of the series, including
    The challenge of exposing this and losing Jasper’s credibility and ruining all his political dreams, as well as making Nick dangerous to Jasper and Laura, because Nick is aware of his infertility and now that the tape is gone, he thinks that with Threatening to reveal this issue (father-daughter illicit relationship) to blackmail them.

  2. WARNING : Spoilers in my review

    My husband & I watched all 8 episodes of “Pieces of Her”!
    Like other reviewers we felt that Andrea’s script was awful & she really was never fully flushed out throughout all the episodes ! She really unnecessarily put herself in danger by not following her mother’s instructions to get the car & just drive to Maine ! When she went to the bar & she & her mother were on the TV & ppl recognized her made us crazy Jane was pretty horrible as a young girl giving the gun to the woman who would kill her own father in Oslo! Hooking up with Nick Hoag (stolen dead man’s identity ) was the biggest mistake in her life & him ghosting her & her daughter got very annoying ! Jane’s family was evil until the present day!
    If there is a second season -they better have a better story line for Andrea the daughter of Jane & Nick Hoag !
