Good but not great

Woman of the Hour is based on the true story of a serial killer who actually hunted a potential victim of The Dating Game in the 1970's. While the film kept my interest, the time jumps back and forth to other previous victims kind of confuses the story a bit and after reading the actual true story I feel that they focused on the wrong woman for this movie. Anna Kendrick also directs this and changes the real life contestant Cheryl Bradshaw into a failing actress who changes the questions given to her to make herself appear much smarter than the men on the show, challenging them to answer much more detailed and thought provoking questions when in reality the real woman was a drama teacher and was there looking to meet a man and seemed very bubbly and asked really silly questions the show provided.

I just felt this could've been done better and the I feel the serial killer was miscast.
