ComingSoon’s Jonathan Sim recently spoke with director Marielle Heller (A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood, Can You Ever Forgive Me?) for her new movie, Nightbitch. They discussed directing actors and how she executed the film’s outlandish premise.

Amy Adams talks about her role as a complicated mother — who turns into a dog — in Marielle Heller's 'Nightbitch.'

You expect a movie with the premise and title of 'Nightbitch' to either be hilariously amazing or downright terrible, so the fact that it’s so blandly middle of the road is both surprising and disappointing.
