Once Upon a Crime
2008, English. Directed by David Stanley.
When storybook author Samantha (Kirsten Price) begins to have fantasies about getting rid of her useless husband and running away with her maid, the story starts to appear on the pages of her latest children's book. In this magical kingdom, she becomes a Queen Bee and disposes of her unfaithful King in favor of her loyal worker drones. It's not long before Samantha's life imitates her art and she gives her husband a pink slip out of her life, finally ending her troubled marriage. Now the Queen Bee and the workers have the kingdom all to themselves...but will there be a happy ending? The workers may have plans of their own...
