Shirley is infinitely more interesting than any sort of standard biopic. Elisabeth Moss talks playing Shirley Jackson, creating the love story with Odessa Young, and admiring the author’s petty grievances
Photo: Neon One of 2020’s best films involves the following: an agoraphobic writer, thousands of cigarettes, lesbian love affairs, and some petty vindictive drama between a married couple. Josephine Decker’s Shirley, starring Elisabeth Moss, is a fictional account of Jackson in her later years, centering on her work and a love triangle involving her husband, Stanley and their tenant, Rose .
Did that help getting into Shirley’s psyche? You get so many different versions and shades of her and her personality. What was it like mining all of that? We were trying to show that she was this incredibly modern woman. This particular part of the story is fictionalized, but we wanted to show that they were very ahead of their time. She feels something for Rose that she’s not feeling for Stanley right now. And it gets all mixed up in the writing of this book and trying to solve this mystery. I think she sees in Rose somebody who can avoid the mistakes that perhaps she has made, and not be ruled by a husband.
This movie is so interesting because it’s exploring women making art and artists making art. And I feel like that’s a genre that’s relegated for male artists. There’s always a prestigious actor playing a famous painter and how shitty he is for his art, and I don’t think you see that so much with women artists.
