The Female Instinct

About This Movie

The Female Instinct is a unique blend of comedy, crime, and drama, directed by Leonard B. Stern. It captures this quirky atmosphere where two aging authors, a spinster and her widowed sister, dip their toes into real-life sleuthing. They’re both a bit eccentric, which adds a charming layer to their characters. The pacing is light but engaging, never dragging, keeping you invested in this offbeat murder mystery. The dynamic between the sisters feels genuine, lending some depth to their quirky escapades. And the twist of having them as writers of murder mysteries makes for some clever meta-commentary. Although it’s a pilot for a TV series, it stands quite well on its own, showcasing interesting performances that hint at larger stories.
