Netflix's latest true-crime thriller, Woman of the Hour, is landing on the streaming site this month. With its connection to a real-life serial killer, fans are already fascinated to know if the film is based on a true story.
Anna Kendrick’s directorial debut, Woman of the Hour, was shown last year at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF), and viewers were gripped by the frightening tale. The film tells the chilling story of 1970s notorious serial killer Rodney Alcala. Despite his heinous crimes, Alcala appeared on national television on the TV show The Dating Game, where he encountered aspiring actor Cheryl Bradshaw, portrayed by Kendrick in the film.
