So, is The Woman in the Window based at all on a true story? Perhaps a book? It plays like a true crime story but it’s also full of fantastical twists and turns that are pretty out there.

Now, the film is skipping cinemas in favor of a Netflix release, and it’s one of the biggest premieres to hit the streaming service this month.

But when Anna, gazing out her window one night, sees something she shouldn’t, her world begins to crumble and its shocking secrets are laid bare. Then the Russells move into the house across the way: a father, mother, their teenaged son. She spends her day drinking wine (maybe too much), watching old movies, recalling happier times.
