Caitlin Rose (Tiffani-Amber Thiessen) attends a private prom party with the popular jocks known as The Crew that includes a fun Carrie prank. After rejecting Jace, she hooks up with Ethan (Brian Austin Green). Jace is unrelenting and engineers Caitlin catching Ethan with another girl. Despite many rejections, Jace talks Caitlin to let him into her home. He rapes her while her mother (Isabella Hofmann) is away. Her little sister Junie hears the rape. Her friends don't believe her and everybody starts bullying her in favor of the football jock.This is a teen rape network TV movie. It's surprisingly effective. I attribute that mostly on Thiessen. She has a very compelling persona and her character has a harrowing story. Brian Austin Green is also quite effective. It's more compelling than most in this genre.

Excellent story about teenagers, leaders, high school football "stars". How far will you go to protect your friends? Lie, kill? How much can You lose if you stud by an innocent girl? Can love beat the odds? Can you defeat narrow-minded small town people? When your friend scores and you "lose", will you do everything in your power to make her pay for it, or will you be a man about it, and respect her right to chose? Will you rape her and show it as your victory over a "problem" girl? Can you stand by the one who's only sin is to have an opinion of her own, to be able to make her own decisions, to chose for herself? It made me think twice before giving my judgment about who was right and who was wrong, but one is for sure - very disturbing movie and theme in general. Thumb up!

*Spoilers Entail*She Fought Alone was a great movie! It's a stroy about Caitlin Rose (Thiessan) who so badly wanted to be popular and join the popular crew at school. When she hooks up with the leader of The Crew, the football team, Ethan (Austin Green), things take a turn for the worst. Caitlin believes that Ethan likes her, but is mistaken.Another boy, Jace (Lipper), likes Caitlin a lot. He shows up at her house one night to 'talk.' She lets him in but only soon to realize that this was a mistake. Jace proceeds to rape Caitlin.The next day, Caitlin doesn't go to school, but she is fairly messed up. When she does go back to school, there are rumors and things written all over the school. The rest of the movie is about her fight to beat the jerk who raped her. Ethan and the crew actually do some failry mean stuff to her too, but then Ethan realizes that he may like Caitlin more than he thought...The movie ends well and all. The movie has a great deal of realism because things like this movie happen all the time. Hope you enjoy the flick!!!

I really like this film... when I started to watch it I thought I would get bored pretty soon, but it surprised me... I thought it was a great film and have seen it a few times now. The characters are believable and I have to say that I fell in love with Brian Austin Green all over again (the first time being Beverly Hills 90210). I would recommend this film if you are a fan of his, but I do agree with another comment made earlier, that the ending is sort of disappointing. I would have loved it to turn out a little different! Never mind though, good gripping story.
