    Kendrick's film was extremely good and I love that she managed to keep it tense and menacing without graphically showing the violent details of the murders. Well done, Anna!

      This is a good critique. I also really loved it for these same reasons. I also thought the cinematography was really choice (not sure how much of a hand she actually had in that) but some of the shots were really beautiful, some scary, some just nicely done.

    "How bad of a serial killer are we talking here?"
    "One of the really bad ones. Not someone we like."
    I hope this woman never changes. She's so delightfully awkward, just like the rest of us. The turn to the audience was great, you can feel her brain saying "Why did you suggest we like some serial killers?!?!" And yet, the grin never really leaves her face.

However, because it's Anna Kendrick, I still would recommend watching it on Netflix just out of support. There is no doubt she will get better with time. *The overall message, which doesn't come through until the very end is just how often the cries (and deaths!) of women are ignored by authority figures.*

      Its annoying but this will help.
      When there is two segments featuring the first guest, the longest one is usually the first one. If there is three segments they are usually in order by length with the longest one first and the shortest one of the other two is usually last of the three.
      For the whole show, the funny 1 minute intro for the show is always first, the monologue is always second, his "Meanwhile" segment or its equivalent is always third. The featured guest (Anna Kendrick in this case) with two or more segments comes next, if there is a one segment guest they come next, then the musical guest if there is one is last.
      The monologue is always uploaded first, well in advance of the rest. The funny intro is uploaded sometime later, usually in a batch with the rest of the segments for the show.
      You can also wait to the next day where they place a playlist for the entire show on their home page, which is in order.
      But yes, it would be nice if they were numbered!

    Just watched this movie last night and didn’t know much about it, didn’t even know she directed it (wow!) and it was fantastic AND absolutely FRIGHTENING AS HELL!!! It’s suspenseful and so tense. It was disheartening to find out it was based on a real life story. It gave a sinking feeling on how scary real life can be compared to the gore of other types of horror films.
    Her directing was AMAZING and for a first timer?? GIVE THIS WOMAN ALL OF THE AWARDS!

  • @EmceePinks

    Anna Kendrick graced the show,
    To discuss her directorial flow.
    A true crime tale she did unfold,
    Of a killer from times of old.
    A casual fan, she'd always been,
    But life's twists made darkness convene.
    Obsessed she grew, with stories grim,
    Then came a project, on a whim.
    Two years she waited, for the film's birth,
    Then a rush, a scramble, a directorial dearth.
    A voice within, urged her to try,
    To helm the project, to reach for the sky.
    Fear she fought, in a 48-hour plight,
    To convince producers, day and night.
    A pitch she made, then questioned its worth,
    But Hollywood's facade, hid their true mirth.
    They urged confidence, a second take,
    A leader's aura, they wished to partake.
    Anna played the part, with feigned aplomb,
    And landed the job, beating Hollywood's drum.
    They knew she was faking, a game they all played,
    But in her leadership, they firmly swayed.
    Anna Kendrick, the actress turned director bold,
    Her story in Hollywood, forever to be told.
