A particularly powerful scene is where Cheryl asks the three contestants, “what are girls for”, which, of course, attracts some pretty sexist answers. “Girls are for guys and having fun with” is the first bachelor’s response and “girls are for wining and dining” is the second response, but Rodney’s response is the most measured out of the three: “I guess I’d have to say that that’s up to the girl”.

Woman Of The Hour is a brilliant comment on the more ‘casual’ misogyny as well as the fatal side of gendered violence (both in the 1970s and present day) and I’m hopeful that this will be the start of women making true crime films and shows that aren’t bloody and exploitative but actually centre the lives of the women affected.

Woman Of The Hour is now streaming on Netflix
