Listen to the story

Actress Anne Hathaway starred in a dark thriller released in 2023 that received surprisingly little attention. Despite strong reviews, the film did not become widely popular with audiences.

Critics say the movie flew under the radar, meaning it was mostly overlooked when it came out. Many viewers may not have even heard of it.

The thriller has a chilling atmosphere, with a dark and tense plot that keeps viewers on edge. Hathaway's performance has been praised by those who have seen it.

Writers are now encouraging people to go back and watch the film. They believe it deserves more recognition than it originally received.

This renewed attention comes alongside news that Hathaway plans to step back from her acting career, taking time away from major film roles.

Fans and critics alike are using this moment to look back at her past work, including this lesser-known thriller, which some consider one of her most interesting performances.
