Photo by Melinda Sue Gordon Wyatt Russell in Photo by Melinda Sue Gordon The Woman in the Window has had a very fraught history, starting with the publication of the novel by A.J. Finn (aka Dan Mallory), as the authors history of truth-telling is questionable. The screen rights had been sold well before publication, and after filming in 2018, the adaptation starring Amy Adams was set to be released in ...

Our Verdict Classy work from director and cast, but an anti-climactic second half doesn’t quite knit together the incident and intrigue. First, we had David Fincher’s take on Gone Girl. Then it was the slightly-less-good The Girl On The Train. And now comes The Woman In The Window, the latest bestseller-adapted, female-focused, A-list mystery thriller to land on our screens. Joe Wright’s long-delayed take on A.J. Finn’s novel was hampered first by re-shoots and the takeover of original ...

Dont show me this message again✕ Here’s looking at you (iStock) T here is a young couple who live in the flat across from mine. My kitchen window looks directly into their living room. In the past year, I’ve become accustomed to the rhythms of their shared life. When I am making coffee at 7am, they’re not awake yet. When I go to sleep, they’re watching something on a laptop (they have a TV but maybe it’s broken because they never use it). If cinema is anything to go by, I’m one s...

A.J. Finns bestseller The Woman in the Window spends a lot of time name-dropping classic film noir, its aggrieved narrator escaping into late-night marathons of old thrillers and noting out loud how similar her plight is to those of her favorite black-and-white antiheroes. In fact, the books central mystery is noticeably reminiscent of Rear Window: As in that Alfred Hitchcock classic, a protagonist stuck in an apartment spends a lot of time peering through neighbors windows and becomes convin...
