Anne Hathaway makes startling revelation

Hollywood actor Anne Hathaway recently revealed during a post-screening of 'Eileen', at the Sundance Film Festival that she was once asked a creepy question when she was just 16 years old, according to Variety

The 40-year-old actor said, "I just remembered one of the very first questions I ever got asked when I started acting and had to do press was: 'Are you a good girl or a bad girl?'" She added, "I was 16. And my 16-year-old self wanted to respond with this film."

The actor further said that she signed up for the darkly funny thriller after she saw director William Oldroyd's 2016 drama, "Lady MacBeth" starring Florence Pugh.

Anne said, "I thought it was an extraordinary work. I saw a study of female complication that hit me really, really deep, and I felt like Will was a filmmaker that could be trusted to tell complicated stories, especially about females."
