Woman of the Hour is a crime thriller genre movie released in 2023, which meteoric rising American actress Anna Kendrick as a film director. True to the fiction of the movie, it was based on the horrifying story of Rodney Alcala, a serial killer to boot who guested in a 1970s show called The Dating Game. The story revolves around Sheryl Bradshaw in her dream to be an actress portrayed by Kendrick just to take Alcala out and eventually be killed by him. The aspects of the film are related to the themes of misogyny and violence and how women deal with strange men. It captures a form of Alcala’s persona and dolled-out charm graphically presents the interactions he has with his victims, and highlights the various institutional deficiencies that enabled him to continue perpetrating his heinous acts despite complaints lodged against him. When I looked back at my own life, I could connect to the vulnerability, but also the suspense in some scenes in the movie that might appear completely ordinary from the outside. It is most useful as a caution against the evils of talking to strangers since such incidents are still possible in today’s society. It is for these reasons and supported by a good plot and good acting, the film is not only entertaining but is a social relevance message too.
