Anna Kendrick's Woman of the Hour turns a true-crime footnote into a smartly told thriller
Oscar nominee (Up in the Air). Popular actress (Pitch Perfect, Twilight). Tony nominee (High Society). Memoirist (Scrappy Little Nobody). Everybody knows Anna Kendrick is a talent. But by starring in and directing Woman of the Hour (Netflix, Oct. 18), she outdoes herself. A deft balancing act of close-your-eyes horror, taut suspense, black comedy and disturbing sociodrama, this film marks one of the most impressive actor-director debuts in recent memory.
