Lucille

Send me a character’s name and my muse will tell how they feel about them

‘She’s beautiful.  Exciting.  It’s a tough world out there.  Scavenging for food and avoiding Walkers.  Skirting around groups that’ll just as quickly slit your throat as they would welcome y’in.  I saw the happiness in her eyes when she saw me.  Saw who she wanted to see in me.  I want to see it again.’

Allerdale Hall is her sanctuary. She grew up in a very small area of the house, and I connect her to an animal who spends a lot of time in a cage. Even when you let them out, they keep trying to go back into it because they feel safe there. What's important is sustaining the home because it's the only place she's ever felt like she's belonged.

Lady Sharpe's upswept hair was a rich chestnut; it was dotted with scarlet stones too impossibly large to be actual rubies. A similar gem graced her finger, a garnet, deeply red and rich. Perhaps it was real. Her green eyes were enormous, set in a porcelain face of striking features. As she seated herself on the piano bench, the rich folds of her antique gown seemed to shimmer, drenching the fabric in deeper shades of jewel-like crimson. She looked Elizabethan, the back of the dress elaborately laced, with a high-necked ruff the color of fresh blood.

Alan realized then that there was real passion in the soul of Lucille Sharpe, expressed through music. She was more than the decorous traveling companion of her brother. He wondered what she dreamed of, what she wished for. She was two years older than Sir Thomas and, apparently, unmarried; certainly she must have had chances. Perhaps she had been widowed?

“Every actor was given extensive biographical folders written by del Toro with information that could not be shared with their co-stars. The biographies detailed each character's backstory, even information that will never make it into the film. For example, Chastain read aloud from her personal notes for us, in which del Toro described Lucille as possessing the following traits: 

"Positives: Loyal, determined, intelligent, meticulous, decisive, observant, eloquent, artistic, passionate, sensitive, delicate, protective, unwavering; 

Negatives: Insular, narcissistic, violent, domineering, possessive, agoraphobic, germaphobic, vengeful, jealous, manipulative, depressive, demanding, suffocating. 

Secret dream: To never leave Allerdale Halle (the house); 

Likes: The smell of tobacco, the taste of very bitter chocolate." 

The information that del Toro had given her in that notebook included multiple sticky-pads, photographs, and random notes. Classified information.”
