    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      This movie was originally announced in 2010. Producer Graham King very much wanted Angelina Jolie to play Ruth Slater, and hired Christopher McQuarrie to write a script tailored specifically for her. She never officially signed on, and over the next few years the movie went through various other writers and directors, including McQuarrie and Scott Frank, before stalling. It went back into development in 2019.
    • Goofs
      When Katherine arrives on the stage, she puts down a backpack. During her final note, we get a back shot of the piano and the backpack is no where to be seen.
