In voiceover, we hear Anna happily chatting with her husband Ed (Anthony Mackie) and 8-year-old daughter Olivia apparently over the phone, but we don't see them for the most part of the film. Anna explains she's separated from her husband, but it slowly becomes clear something else is up. When Anna brings the picture Julianne Moore's Jane drew and ...
In a flashback, we join the Fox family driving to the mountains for a Christmas skiing trip. Anna's strained relationship with Ed is teased out, Ed unhappy about putting on a "happy family" front for their daughter, after Anna cheated on him. Anna then receives a phone call from an Unknown Caller, who Ed suggests is "him" and they struggle over the...
After attempting suicide, Anna has been seeing therapist Dr. Landy (Tracy Letts) for nearly a year to address her depression. Believing she's curtailed her drinking problem, Dr. Landy prescribes her Elevan, a medication that has side effects when taken with alcohol. Because Anna has definitely not stopped her drinking, she experiences hallucination...
When Anna first meets Ethan Russell, he appears to be a sweet teenager dropping off a welcome gift from his mom, the real Jane Russell, aka Jennifer Jason Leigh's character. Yet while Alistair Russell (Gary Oldman) is Ethan's real father, Jane Russell isn't his biological mother. His biological mother is Katie, aka Julianne Moore's character, who A...
The first time we meet "Jane Russell" she's Julianne Moore's version, a cool artist who takes care of Anna after kids throw eggs at her townhouse on Halloween and she suffers a fainting spell. When Anna says, "You're Jane Russell," the woman replies "What makes you say that?" She never confirms her identity, adeptly dodging any personal questions. ...
David, who had a one night stand with Katie and apparently a long discussion about who she is, reveals Katie's true identity as Ethan's birthmother. He says that Katie and Alistair Russell were in a relationship before Katie left eight months into her pregnancy. Alistair spent two years tracking her down, finally finding her in a meth commune in Or...
Anna ventures into David's basement room to ask him if he ever met Jane after working for Alistair. She discovers letters from the Boston parole board. He owns up, saying he's "in violation," supposed to be in Springfield, Massachusetts, because of a bar fight. He was in the wrong place at the wrong time and merely "reacted." He then punches the wa...
On Wednesday, the day after Anna meets "Jane," Anna hears a scream and shouting from the Russells. She sees "Jane," aka Katie, leave (after Katie had presumably frightened the real Jane and fought with the Russells), then goes downstairs to ask David whether he heard the commotion. In the background, she can hear a woman crying. Little does she kno...
On Thursday, Anna sees Katie inside the Russells' apartment and quietly roots for her in what appears to be an argument with Alistair. Moments later, a knife is sticking out of Katie's stomach. We don't see who put it there, but Anna assumes it's Alistair. We later find out it was really Ethan. After Ethan murders David, he informs Anna that he had...
May 13, 2021 · Rating: 5/10. Ever since I read A.J. Finn’s debut novel The Woman in the Window, I’ve been obsessed with its film adaptation. The 2018 book is the perfect heir to the throne of previous unputdownable psychological thrillers Gone Girl and The Girl on the Train.

May 15, 2021 · With its sense of thriller and theme of voyeurism, ‘The Woman in the Window’ is most definitely trying to emulate Hitchcockian sensibilities, with a strong influence from ‘Rear Window.’ From shot choice to Anna’s simple characteristic of being a Peeping Tom, the film is practically built on the idea of looking into other people’s lives.
