Some of Sheryl’s bad experiences as an aspiring actor mirror Anna Kendrick’s own
Tale
Sheryl Bradshaw, a single woman looking for a suitor on a hit 1970s TV show, chooses charming bachelor Rodney Alcala, unaware that, behind the man’s gentle facade, he hides a deadly secret.. The comment about Sheryl’s breasts is "lifted verbatim from something that happened to me when I was 19".. Near the end of the film, her name is spelled Cheryl on one of the narratives that reveal what happened after the film . Her name is actually spelled Sheryl, which was correct in the cast list..
Ed: That signals the end of our game
Well, Cheryl, it’s time to make a decision!. Referenced in CTV News at Six Toronto: Episode dated September 8, 2023 (2023). This film spoke to me for a couple of reasons. I was a college student during the time depicted in this film, and I remember very well how naïve many young women were about how manipulative, conniving, and dangerous some men could be.
I found it a little annoying at first, but it all made sense at the end
I’m fortunate that nothing happened to me, because I certainly took some risks in situations where I should have known better. And then when something like a sexual crime happened to a young woman, law enforcement didn’t always take it seriously. They often thought the girl was asking for it because, for example, she was wearing a short skirt and walking alone at night. The pacing of this film is deliberate and intense, and it switches back and forth between time frames and victims.
Zovatto came across as creepy AF
I thought Anna Kendrick and Daniel Zovatto played their roles extremely well. A few points are fictionalized, of course, and I’m not sure how much. I did some reading about Rodney Alcala, and the way he was apprehended is essentially accurate. If you can deal with the slow pace of this film, it’s well worth the watch..
