There’s a moment in Nightbitch, a film exploring the ferality of motherhood through the eyes of a woman who believes she’s turning into a dog, that made every one of my hairs stand on end.
Playing the film’s lead, Mother – she tellingly isn’t given a real name – Amy Adams is having an argument with her husband (Scoot McNairy). He accuses her of changing since having their first child and becoming a stay-at-home mum, asking what happened to the brilliantly weird and intelligent woman he married.
