Eileen (2023) | Fan Theory
I rewatched Eileen (with my sister who loved the movie btw) and I just had a thought pop into my head! I don't know if this is a known thing or if someone has already thought of this, but my theory is that Rebecca is a killer and her modus operandi is finding an unsuspecting person to frame for her crimes!
I believe that Rebecca finds a person who "shares the same ideals" as her and makes them complicit in her kill, then has that person take the fall. Her victim in this case is Eileen, a budding murderer who Rebecca knows she can manipulate.
I had a feeling that throughout the movie Rebecca didn't really care for Eileen. Rebecca tends to talk over her and never really listens to what Eileen says. Not to mention, Rebecca essentially love bombs her, knowing that Eileen is a very lonely and isolated young woman.
Was Rebecca ever a real person? Was her crying and screaming all just an act? Did she find young men wronged by the system and enact her own kind of justice by killing the people responsible for them? Did she kill someone at her previous job then move on to Massachusetts where she chose her next victim?
This movie was so good because it really makes you stop and think. It's so worth it to watch a second time just to pick up on all the little nuances and foreshadowing.
Anyways, this was my insane person ramble. I could elaborate more on the theory, but it's one in the morning and I'm SUPER tired. Thank you and goodnight <3
Eileen (2023) | ☆☆☆☆
(spoilers ahead!)
Today, I watched Eileen and it surpassed any expectations I had going in. Anne Hathaway and Thomasin McKenzie's acting in this movie was incredible and the cinematography was to die for. Perfectly dark and intimate. The buildup of the story left something to be desired, but the twist at the end was done so well that I physically slapped my hand against my mouth in disbelief.
The way Anne Hathaway delivered the line, "The first thing you need to know, this isn't my house. This is the Polk house. I have Mrs. Polk tied up downstairs." Chills.
My favorite scene though, was a bit earlier in the kitchen when Rebecca says, "Tell me, honey...what would make a person want to kill their father?" Eileen replies, "Everybody wants to kill their father." Rebecca's eye twitches and she says, "No they don't. Where did you hear that?"
I thought this exchange was PERFECT. Eileen is completely oblivious to her own psychopathy and capacity for violence, up until the point where she shoots Mrs. Polk and excitedly devises a plan to hide the body. We're led to believe (at least I was led to believe) that Rebecca was the one hiding a secret murder-y alter ego, but then Eileen actually acting on her intrusive thoughts in the end (shooting Mrs. Polk) was a great twist after all the fake-outs.
Also, I love the way we become desensitized to Eileen's intrusive thoughts throughout the movie. Because Eileen thinks that her violent fantasies are normal, we end up just brushing over her thoughts of killing herself/her father until her dark side appears with a literal bang.
Eileen thinks that everyone thinks the way she does and it comes as a surprise when she realizes that she isn't like every one else. Eileen kills Mrs. Polk and she does it with a sort of detached calmness that is so striking against Rebecca who was shaking, screaming, and crying. There's something terribly wrong with Eileen, whereas Rebecca had made a terrible mistake and was trying to fix it.
(Rebecca: "Why did you shoot her?"
Eileen: "I was upset.")
The scene also highlights the fact that Rebecca would never be able to love/accept Eileen because they are not alike. Although it pains me to say it (because I really wanted them to run away together), Rebecca was simply a stepping stone for Eileen in her journey of self discovery.
This made me recall the conversation Eileen had with her father. He said, "Some people...they're the real people. Like in a movie, they're the ones you're watching. They're the ones making moves. And other people...they're there filling the space. That's you, Eileen."
At the end of the movie, Eileen becomes one of the "real people" and smiles.
I feel like I could talk about this movie WAY more and do a better in depth analysis, but I just wanted to briefly talk about some of my favorite parts <3
Don’t know if I trust the way Christopher Nolan writes women for him to be allowed to tackle anything Greek mythology related
I finally figured out who I feel the chill part of Jessica jones personality was based on.

My childhood
"Eileen" (William Oldroyd, 2023)
Siamo a Boston negli anni '60. Eileen è una ragazza che lavora come segretaria presso un riformatorio minorile e vive in casa con il padre, un ex poliziotto alcolista. Una vita abbastanza monotona per lei fin quando al riformatorio non arriva Rebecca una nuova psicologa. Eileen rimane affascinata dalla sua personalità e dalla sua intelligenza. Le due legheranno molto finchè Rebecca non coinvolgerà Eileen in qualcosa di molto pericoloso.
Dal romanzo omonimo di Ottessa Moshfegh, Eileen interpretata da Thomasin McKenzie (protagonista di Last Night in Soho) è una ragazza che vive la sua vita come se fosse rinchiusa in due prigioni (casa/lavoro) reprimendo i suoi desideri e usando la sua immaginazione per soddisfarli.
Quando arriva Rebecca, per svolgere il lavoro di psicologa al riformatorio (interpretata da una splendida Anne Hathaway), Eileen rimane colpita dal suo modo di fare e dal suo magnetismo.
La psicologa si occupa di un caso abbastanza complesso: il caso di Lee Polk, un adolescente che ha ucciso il padre a coltellate. Rebecca parla con lui e con la madre ma senza risultati soddisfacenti.
La sera della vigilia di Natale Rebecca invita Eileen a passare la serata insieme a casa sua, ma proprio lì ci sarà un punto di rottura e avverrà qualcosa che potrebbe cambiare la vita di Eileen per sempre.
Un thriller dalle tinte cupe, con un'ambientazione e una ricostruzione degli anni '60 abbastanza credibile e con 2 protagoniste molto brave. Peccato che non appena si arrivi alla parte più tesa e drammatica del film, siamo praticamente già alla fine. Avrei preferito un maggiore approfondimento, soprattutto su quello che sarà poi l'elemento clou del film, ma anche sul rapporto tra le protagoniste e sulla loro caratterizzazione. È un peccato, perché il film è davvero interessante ma ti lascia con la sensazione di aver visto qualcosa di incompiuto e abbozzato. Nonostante queste pecche non mi sento di bocciarlo e penso meriti comunque una visione. Lo trovate al cinema 😊

ANNE HATHAWAY | MET GALA 2023
Ok, so maybe on Henley Monday I promised a Tuxedo Tuesday. And maybe yesterday there was a blizzard and I also go distracted and forgot to make the post. Maybe that's all true. But HERE. NOW. I bring you a plethora of photos from Hollywood's Biggest Night.
I bring you...Men In Tuxedos at the Oscars!
First, let's walk down the red carpet....
If you look closely, you can see Mr. Tveit's striped socks. I love a man who has a bit of whimsy when it comes to his dress socks.
Next up is Aaron "Enjolras" Tveit's Les Mis buddy Eddie Redmayne rocking the hell out of his velvet slippers.
Chris Pine went for the double breasted jacket. I die. I just die. He's not alone in his refusal to shave either. Many, many actors declined to rid themselves of facial hair for the black tie event.
This picture of Joseph Gordon Levitt shows the detail on his tux. The fabric has a bit of texture to it, as well as the piping details. I can't tell if the piping is silk or leather. I really want it to be leather.
Bradley Cooper brought his mom! He brought his adorable and precocious mom! She has on a pink ostrich feather stole AND tennis shoes! Brad's three-piece Tom Ford also rule and even though his hair is yucky he looks fine.
My personal fave Chris Evans brought his proud momma along too! She looks radiant. Chris, I love a good bow tie, but I get that's not quite your style.
Then the show started and more men tromped out on stage including this fine selection of male specimen from the Avengers. Samuel L. Jackson gets major points for going with that garnet velvet. Love it.
A whole bunch of awards were given out and the biggest one of the night went to Ben Affleck for Argo! He dressed the part of a best picture winner with a one button, silk lapel jacket, vest, and silk bow-tie! DAMN, AFFLECK, YOUR FACE IS AGING AS WELL AS YOUR CAREER!
Basically I was looking at my TV like this all night long:
