A mysterious murder, a beautiful young woman, two handsome men that love her, and a picturesque setting filled with wild animals and strange characters. What’s not to like? This past summer, audiences found a reprieve from blockbuster superhero and dinosaur movies and made Where the Crawdads Sing an unlikely hit.
The movie, based on the bestselling book by Della Owens (whose real-life troubles could fuel a novel of her own), is about a young woman named Kya in 1960s North Carolina who is charged with the murder of her lover, Chase. Did she do it? Even if she didn’t, will anyone believe a “wild and loose” woman’s claims of innocence in a small Southern town in the ’60s? While it’s too late to catch the movie in theaters to find out these answers, the film will soon hit streaming services for more people to discover and solve the mystery behind Crawdad‘s tangled plot.

Only if forbidden romances and whodunit mysteries set in the past are up your alley. According to our reviewer, star “[Daisy] Edgar-Jones manages to make Kya’s strength and insecurities feel real. She brings a quiet steadiness to her character that not only adds further authenticity to the film’s characterization of her, but also makes it easy to buy into some of the more questionable or difficult decisions that she is forced to make throughout it.”
Along with Edgar-Jones, the film stars Harris Dickinson (Triangle of Sadness) as Chase, Taylor John Smith as Tate, and veteran character actor David Strathairn as Tom Milton. The movie was directed by Olivia Newman and is 125 minutes long.
Currently, Where the Crawdads Sing registers 35% on the Tomatometer on Rotten Tomatoes and a critics score of 43 on Metacritic.
