Crimson Peak (2015)
dir. guillermo del toro
Edith is 24. The flashback at the beginning with Eleanor's ghost happens when she's 10, and then the main action takes place "14 years later" according to a title card onscreen
Thomas is 34, based on the date of the newspaper announcing Beatrice's murder (1879), his age at the time (12), and the present year shown in Carter Cushing's checkbook (1901)
Lucille is 36, from the same logic above. (people seem to enjoy interpreting their age gap as much larger, which is weird to me because it's stated onscreen? by Alan when he's confronting them near the end? even if you don't pause the movie to read document dates- understandable -"12 and 14 when Beatrice was murdered" makes the gap clear)

Ah that scene was so. Hhhhhh
Tfw when your sister comes out as a lesbian so you sing a duet together about being true to yourself and not letting family pressure keep you down and you roll together on a mountain of flowers while longingly gazing into each other's eyes, only for your homophobic grandmother to show up and accuse you - not her - of corrupting your sister and hurting your family, as if you weren't a member but rather an outsider, an external threat, never quite being loved by the people you love, as you hopelessly try to explain it wasn't that it seemed, your sister NEEDED you to ruin her engagement to the heterosexual man down the road and sing a lesbian duet with you on top of a palm tree.
Ahh the golden child × scapegoat child dynamic. I hold it so dear to my heart.
This took me SO LONG but I for one am somewhat proud of how a piece of mine turns out :D
So much is said in the Crimson Peak fandom about Tom Hiddleston’s ass
And not enough about Jessica Chastain backlit in a translucent white nightgown with apparently nothing underneath
You can pry my love for Lucille Sharpe from my cold, dead hands. And even then, I’ll probably come back as a ghost to jumpscare you, so you will have to leave it be. Bitch.
an as much objective as it canever be guide with slightly incestuous goggles. parallels between a canon incest ship (sharpecest) and a fanon incest ship (brumira).
honestly, it's worth your time of reading it.
