Shirley (2020, D: Decker, EP: Scorsese) - S: Elisabeth Moss





Renowned horror writer Shirley Jackson is on the precipice of writing her masterpiece when the arrival of newlyweds upends her meticulous routine and heightens tensions in her already tempestuous relationship with her philandering husband. The middle-aged couple, prone to ruthless barbs and copious afternoon cocktails, begins to toy mercilessly with the naïve young couple at their door.

Everywhere June 5th.

I think this looks great. I saw the trailer a few months ago, but I guess they just released it online today. Looks like it will go digital.

Did the people who made this have any appreciation or respect for Shirley Jackson? Sad to see her reduced to a hateful, drunken slob.

This is one of those movies where you wonder what the point was of basing it on a real person. I guess cause they know they're telling a crummy story, so they need to steal some prestige from someone else in order to get any attention.
