“Lucille (Jessica Chastain) is actually part of the house. They’re connected. The house is history, it’s the past, it’s her childhood, it’s everything. And she cannot separate that. Her wardrobe has pieces of architecture of the house embroidered in lace,” Del Toro said. “We very deliberately made her the same color as the walls. The walls are the same color as her eyes. We wanted to make them have the color of the house.”
The horror… The horror was for love.

The horror was for love. The things we do for love like this are ugly, mad, full of sweat and regret. This love burns you and maims you and twists you inside out. It is a monstrous love and it makes monsters of us all. || Crimson Peak (2015)
#the framing of these poses kills me every time #his hands are up technically in surrender or supplication but they’re in her space #and they’re covered in blood #and she’s BRANDISHING A PEN AS A WEAPON #so his hands are in her space and hers are in his and they’re pivoting around their bloody hands like dancing #(and that pen is not ~accidentally symbolic AT ALL) #(GdT explicitly says the pen represents her power through her writing) #(which she stops doing when she gets to allerdale hall) #(and is only seen writing again by writing her name just before she fights back) #(yah so i’ve been listening to the commentary and getting emo about gothic archetypes how’s your night going)

But the horror… The horror was for love. The things we do for love like this are ugly, mad, full of sweat and regret. This love burns you and maims you and twists you inside out. It is a monstrous love and it makes monsters of us all.
Saw Crimson Peak a while ago but never got the chance to draw what I wanted to draw until now. The beginning of Thomas and Edith’s story and the end… This movie absolutely broke my heart lol omg.
