He gets aggressive with Anna and is mocking of her agoraphobia. David shows a much darker side when he finds Anna in his room uninvited, holding his post, including a letter which indicates he’s on parole and in violation of that. He also borrows a boxcutter from Anna when he’s helping a mate moves some boxes. She leaves her earring in his room.ĭavid does some work for Alistair Russell but doesn’t meet Jane. He goes to spend the next night on a mate’s sofa so as to avoid seeing her. Katie spends the night with Anna’s tenant David (Wyatt Russell), who says she is a bit of a nightmare. Since then the family has been hiding from Katie – only recently had Katie discovered they had moved to Brooklyn and Alistair had been paying her to stay away from her son. He spent two years looking for her, eventually finding her in a “meth commune” at which point he took Ethan, and Katie went to prison. When she was eight months pregnant she left Alistair and disappeared. We learn that Katie is Ethan’s birth mother. Instead he’s after his son, who presumably has had some contact with Katie – his birth mother. Alistair is not looking for Jane – the real Jane (played by Jennifer Jason Leigh) is presumably at home. Anna lies (or thinks she’s lying) and says no, because Katie (who she thinks is Jane) has indicated that Alistair can be rather rigid and controlling (which he can). Later that night Alistair Russell (Gary Oldman) comes to the house and asks if anyone from his family had paid her a visit that night. Though Katie initially questions being called Jane (“why would you assume that?”), she later draws a picture for Anna and signs it “Jane Russell.”
This woman – who we discover later is called Katie – spends the evening chatting and drinking with Anna.
Anna has done some research on the Russells and knows a bit about them but not what they look like. Anna assumes she is Jane Russell because the woman says she has just come from across the street, and because previously Ethan (Fred Hechinger), the 15-year-old kid who lives at that address, brought round a lavender soap which he says is a gift from his mother. At the door is a woman with long blond hair (Julianne Moore) who helps Anna. As you will recall, Anna goes to her front door to shout at some kids who are throwing eggs at her house but, overwhelmed by her agoraphobia, passes out. The first big revelation that’s key to the plot is that the woman Anna meets on Halloween night is not Jane Russell – that’s just an assumption Anna makes. In case you missed a bit, we break down that ending.
