Her fourth feature film, "The Shining," is an imaginative and dynamic psychological suspense film that offers a modern and innovative interpretation of the biographical novel of Charley Jaxson, the American Gothic queen who is said to have inspired Stephen King to write "The Shining. -In 1948, after her short story "The Lottery" caused a sensation in The New Yorker, Charley (Elisabeth Moss) was working on a new full-length novel, but was unable to break out of her slump. The inspiration for the novel came from the unsolved disappearance of Paula Jean Welden, an 18-year-old Bennington College student who suddenly disappeared. Her husband Stanley ( Michael Stahlberg ), also a professor at Bennington College, tries to get Shirley, who is a recluse, to write, but without success. One day, a couple comes to live with them. Fred ( Logan Lerman ), who has taken a job as Stanley's assistant in the literature department, and his wife Rose ( Odessa Young ) are planning to move to a school town in Vermont. Stanley offers them a room and board for free until they can find a new place to live, and in return, they are to do housework and take care of his wife. Shirley, who disliked the idea of strangers coming into their home, gradually finds inspiration for writing through Rose, who tries to take care of her without being frustrated by her own swearing. Rose, on the other hand, is charmed by Charly's charisma, and a strange bond grows between the two of them. However, the youthful couple's deep involvement in this eccentric home will soon test the limits of their love...
