Shirley (2020)
A recently married couple relocate for his new faculty position and are invited to stay with a professor and his wife, Shirley Jackson. What was intended to be a short-term stay is extended when the young wife is asked to play housekeeper and nursemaid to Jackson, who is having trouble coping with day-to-day life.
While this was a pretty good story with interesting characters, I dislike the use of fame as a springboard for fiction. It feels like a cheat to get me to watch (or read) a story because I'm interested in the person it's based on only to find out there's very little truth to the tale. Moss is very good though.
