“I hope you feel seen. The movie is all about the power of the gaze. I mean, you look at the film, but the film is also looking at you. I hope you feel looked at by the film, and in the end I want you to leave the room thinking about yourself. …It’s cinema unveiling itself so that suddenly there is room for you, there is room for your own love stories, for your own souvenir — remembrance. I want you to leave the room full of this story, but also full of your story.” — Céline Sciamma

Shirley Jackson’s The Haunting of Hill House was published sixty years ago today. The novel begins with one of the best openings I have ever read:

“No live organism can continue for long to exist sanely under conditions of absolute reality; even larks and katydids are supposed, by some, to dream. Hill House, not sane, stood by itself against its hills, holding darkness within; it had stood for eighty years and might stand for eighty more. Within, walls continued upright, bricks met neatly, floors were firm, and doors were sensibly shut; silence lay steadily against the wood and stone of Hill House, and whatever walked there, walked alone.”
