If you loved Chasing Mavericks, try The Hand That Rocks the Cradle

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Curtis Hanson, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Chasing Mavericks, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Hand That Rocks the Cradle is

Seattle suburbs, autumn leaves, a babysitter's gentle hum. A mother returns to work, a nanny steps in, a family's routine unravels. Curtis Hanson expertly tightens the screws.
