A directorial debut is always a significant event, not just for the director, but for everyone involved in the project. And no film can truly succeed without a strong script, which is the case for Woman of the Hour, starring and directed by Anna Kendrick, and written by our next guest, Ian McDonald.
In this episode, we explore the film, based on the true story of serial killer Rodney Alcala and his appearance on a televised dating show. Ian shares insights into his script's journey from page to screen, discusses the similarities shared between relationships in the '70s and today, and outlines the necessary changes made to the characters' personalities.
