Jennifer Connolly talked with Fango recently about the film and here's what she said...

"It's being directed by Walter Salles and he's fantastic. It's about a single mother who is going through a divorce and trying to make a life for herself and her five year-old daughter and she starts to see things in this place that she's living and you don't know if it's her husband trying to make her crazy, if it's just in her mind or if there's something going on. It's a scary movie, but an old-school scary movie - not a gore movie. Psychological, suspense."
