...Mary Jo, against all odds and in constant pain, survived the shooting with a bullet lodged in her head - and much to the world's surprise, she stayed married to Joey. They divorced in 2003, after 22 years of marriage, and now Mary Jo, 54, has broken her silence with a book, Getting It Through My Thick Skull: Why I Stayed, What I Learned, and What Millions of People Involved with Sociopaths Need to Know.

Beneath her cheery demeanor is the iron will of a control freak who is bossy both to her staff and to the men she might get it on with; for one blind date, she prepared a series of mutual talking points. We're led to understand that her need to dominate comes from a lack of erotic pleasure in her life. What the movie doesn't address is the root problem of Abby's character. It's not that she's this way because...
