Trigger warning: movie contains graphic crime scenes and depiction of murder
During the 1960s, thirteen women were killed by the Boston Strangler. The city of Boston wasn’t put on high alert until Loretta McLaughlin, one of the few female reporters at the Boston Record American, connected the dots that this was the same pattern. Her critiques of the Boston police department led to a heated search for the Boston Strangler. This movie follows McLaughlin, played by Kiera Knightley, as she reports and tries to find the truth. For a straight-to-Hulu movie, I thought it was really well done. Probably won’t be watching it again because of the subject matter but it was very interesting.
Rating: 2.5/5
