In 'Woman of the Hour,' teen runaway Amy outsmarts Rodney and is instrumental in him getting arrested. Amy meets Rodney in San Gabriel, California, on Valentine's Day 1979, where he charms her by calling her beautiful and luring her into a photo contest. However, Amy's quick thinking ultimately leads to her escaping his clutches, showcasing the harrowing experience many young women faced in the era when Alcala was active.
The film 'Woman of the Hour' takes a deep dive into the unsettling reality of how Alcala, a man who exuded charm and charisma, could simultaneously be a cold-blooded killer. While the focus remains on Sheryl's close encounter with him during 'The Dating Game,' it does not shy away from portraying the grim realities of Alcala's history of violence and the impact it had on the women's lives.
