New Trailer for ‘Woman of the Hour’ Drops Two Weeks Before Netflix Release

The latest trailer for Woman of the Hour has been released online. Directed by Anna Kendrick, with a screenplay written by Ian McDonald, the movie stars Anna Kendrick, Daniel Zovatto, Nicolette Robinson, Tony Hale, Kathryn Gallagher, and Kelley Jakle.

Here is the plot synopsis:

“The stranger-than-fiction story of an aspiring actress in 1970s Los Angeles and a serial killer in the midst of a yearslong murder spree, whose lives intersect when they’re cast on an episode of The Dating Game.”

Our editor-in-chief, Joey Magidson, praised the movie during its Toronto International Film Festival premiere last year as “not just a calling card for an actor turned filmmaker, but a complex film with something to say. The way women were treated in the 1970s, as well as skewed gender dynamics, are examined with precision. Kendrick has an incredible efficiency in her storytelling, getting exactly the responses she wants from you at all times. She’s in full control, making for an exceptionally well-crafted flick.” You can read his full review of the movie here.
