Beverly Bell
0/5 ( ratings)
2:19 am, Sunday, September 28, 1941, 27-year-old Marion Miley, a pretty American golf star known in Europe, Mexico and beyond, sleeps in the upstairs apartment at the affluent and isolated Lexington, Ky., Country Club.
Outside, two men hide in the shadows. The electricity is cut. The bedside clock stops. Gunshots ring out in the darkness.

75 minutes later, an older woman – shot and bleeding – crawls onto the porch of the club's nearest neighbor and collapses. As dawn breaks, the scope of the horrific crime comes to light.
10,000 Days is based on the true story of one of the most famous and popular women golfers in the 1930s and early '40s. It recounts the crime that made the front page of the New York Times and in newspapers around the world. It remembers the extraordinary life of a gifted, young celebrity, who ranked among the best in golf and died at the tragic intersection of privilege, wealth and greed.
