A Quiet Place (film)

A Quiet Place is a 2018 American horror film directed by John Krasinski, who also
A Quiet Place
stars alongside Emily Blunt, his real-life spouse. The screenplay was written by
Krasinski, Bryan Woods, and Scott Beck, based on a story by Woods and Beck. The
plot follows a family who must live life in silence while hiding from creatures that
hunt by sound.

Beck and Woods began working on the story in 2013, and Paramount Pictures
bought their spec script in 2017. Krasinski then joined as director and wrote a new
draft of the script. Principal photography took place later in the year in upstate New
York.

A Quiet Place premiered at South by Southwest on March 9, 2018 and was released
in the United States on April 6, 2018, by Paramount Pictures. It received acclaim
[2]
from critics, who called it a "smart, wickedly frightening good time".

Evelyn goes into labor. While retreating to the basement, she steps on a nail
protruding from the staircase. In agony, she drops a family portrait, alerting the creatures. Evelyn warns a returning Lee and Marcus
of danger by flipping a switch that changes the house's exterior lights from white to red. Though Evelyn fights to remain silent during
contractions, she eventually succumbs to the pain and lets out a scream, which causes a creature to enter the house. Lee instructs
Marcus to create a diversion, which he does by setting off fireworks that mask Evelyn's screams, while Lee returns to Evelyn's side.
He finds her and their newborn son hiding in the bathroom, narrowly avoiding another attack while carrying them to the soundproof
basement.

Regan hurries back to the farm. She and Marcus take refuge atop a grain silo, lighting a fire to alert their father to their whereabouts.
Marcus falls into the silo, sinking into the corn and nearly suffocating, but Regan jumps in and saves him. They avoid death by
clinging to a silo door, which had also fallen into the corn, and which allows them to survive a subsequent creature attack by hiding
under it. Regan's repaired cochlear implant reacts to the proximity of the creature by emitting a piercingly loud, high-frequency sound
that drives the creature off. Lee eventually finds the children, who escape from the silo.

The creature returns and Lee attacks it with a pulaski while Marcus and Regan hide in a pickup truck. During the attack, Lee is
wounded and Marcus shouts, drawing the creature closer to them. Lee signs to Regan that he loves her before shouting, sacrificing
himself in order to draw the creature away from the children. Regan and Marcus use the truck to escape and reunite with a grieving
Evelyn and the baby back at the farmhouse.

Regan, not having been allowed in the basement previously, sees for the first time her father's notes on the creatures and his
experimentation with several different implants, as well as radio equipment. As the creature returns to invade the basement, Regan
inadvertently discovers the power of the boosted cochlear implant. She places it on a nearby microphone, magnifying the feedback to
ward off the creature. Painfully disoriented, the creature exposes the flesh beneath its armored head, rendering itself vulnerable to a
shotgun blast from Evelyn.

Having destroyed one creature, Evelyn and the children observe from the television monitors two other creatures approaching. With
their newly acquired knowledge of the creatures' weakness, Reagan turns up the volume on the feedback and Evelyn reloads the
shotgun.

Cast
Emily Blunt as Evelyn Abbott, the mother of Regan and Marcus and the wife of Lee. She is pregnant with their fourth
child at the start of the film. Krasinski describes Evelyn wanting to ensure their children "be fully-formed, fully-
thinking people".[3]
John Krasinski as Lee Abbott, the father of Regan and Marcus and the husband of Evelyn. Krasinski described his
character as a survivalist who focuses on getting his family through each day .[3]
Millicent Simmonds as Regan Abbott, Lee and Evelyn's deaf daughter , and Marcus and Beau's sister. Krasinski said
he sought a deaf actress, "... for many reasons, I didn't want a non-deaf actress pretending to be deaf. Most
importunely [sic] though, because a deaf actress would help my knowledge and my understanding of the situations
tenfold. I wanted someone who lives it and who could teach me about it on set." [3]

Noah Jupe as Marcus Abbott, the hearing son of Lee and Evelyn, and Regan and Beau’ s brother. Krasinski noticed

Production

Development and writing

A Quiet Place is a production of Sunday Night andPlatinum Dunes;[4] it was produced on a budget of $17 million.[5] Krasinski wrote
the screenplay with story co-writers Scott Beck and Bryan Woods. Beck and Woods grew up together in the US state of Iowa and in
college had watched numerous silent films. By 2013, they began working on the story that would lead to the film. They used their
experience growing up close to farmland as the basis for the story, also including a grain silo setting as a place considered dangerous
in their upbringing. They initiated their approach with a 15-page proof of concept.[6] Initially, the writers had considered developing
the film into being a Cloverfield installment, but after pitching their ideas to the studio collectively all of those involved decided to
keep the film as its own entity.[7]

In January 2016, Beck and Woods began writing A Quiet Place in earnest.[8] Krasinski read their spec script in the following July,[9]
and it appealed to him with the concept of parents protecting their children, especially since he and his wife, actress Emily Blunt, had
had their second child at the time.[3] Blunt encouraged him to direct the film.[9] By March 2017, Paramount bought Beck and
Woods's spec script. The studio hired Krasinski to rewrite the script and to direct the film, which was his third directorial credit and
his first for a major studio.[10] Krasinski cited cinematic influences including Alien (1979), No Country for Old Men (2007), and In
the Bedroom (2001) when writing a new draft.[11] Blunt read Krasinski's draft and asked him if she could be cast opposite him in the
film.[9] He agreed, and they were both cast in the starring roles of the film.
[10]

Filming
Production took place in 2017 from May to November. Most filming took place in US state of New York in Dutchess County and
Ulster County. Filmmakers spent their budget locally, including a purchase of 20 tons of corn which they hired local farmers to grow.
Some filming took place on a soundstage in the town of Pawling in Dutchess County as well as on-location in the county's city of
Beacon.[12] Outside Dutchess and Ulster counties, filming also took place on Main Street in Little Falls in Herkimer County, New
York.[13]

Sound and music

During filming, the crew avoided making noise sodiegetic background sounds(e.g., the sound of rolling dice on a game board) could
be recorded; the sounds were amplified in post-production. A traditional musical score was also added to the film, which Krasinski
[14]
justified for audiences to remain familiar with watching the film and not feel like being part of a "silence experiment".
Supervising sound editorsErik Aadahl and Ethan Van der Ryn worked on A Quiet Place. For scenes from the perspective of the deaf
daughter, sound was removed to put greater focus on the visual. They also advised on organizing shots to reflect the creatures'
perspective, like showing them notice a sound, then showing what was causing the sound. Composer Marco Beltrami provided the
[15]
sound editors music to work with in a way that would not interfere with the sound design throughout the film.

In the film, creatures are blind and communicate through clicking sounds. Aadahl and Van der Ryn said they were inspired by animal
echolocation, such as that employed by bats. The sound of feedback, normally avoided by sound editors, was woven into the story at
[16]
a loudness level that would not bother audiences too much.

Use of sign language

Since the characters communicate in American Sign Language to avoid making sound, filmmakers hired deaf mentor Douglas
Ridloff to teach ASL to the actors and to be available to make corrections. The filmmakers also hired an ASL interpreter for deaf
actor Simmonds so spoken and signed language could be interpreted back and forth on set.[17] Simmonds, who grew up with ASL,
helped teach her fellow actors to sign.[18] She said of the need to practice ASL, "In the movie, we've been signing together for years
and years. So it should look fluent."[19] She observed that the way the others used their sign language reflected their characters'
motivations; the father had short and brief signs that showed his survival mentality, while the mother had more expressive signs as
part of her wanting her children to experience more than survival.[20] Krasinski said Simmonds's character was "a little bit of the
[21]
warrior princess, the black sheep in the family" and that she used "signing that's very defiant, it's very teenage defiant".

Marketing
Paramount Pictures released the first trailer for A Quiet Place in November 2017.[22] It aired a 30-second commercial for the film
during the US football playoff Super Bowl LII on February 4, 2018.[23] Of the seven trailers that aired during the playoff, A Quiet
Place and Red Sparrow aired during the pregame and had the lowest views and social conversations. A Quiet Place had 149,000
views on YouTube, 275,000 videos on Facebook, and 2,900 social conversations.[24][25] On February 12, 2018, Krasinski appeared
on The Ellen DeGeneres Show to present the full trailer forA Quiet Place.[26]

Release
A Quiet Place premiered at the South by Southwest Film Festival as the opening-night film on March 9, 2018.[27] It was selected
from 2,458 submissions,[28] and earned "raves" from critics, according to IndieWire.[29] Following its premiere, the film experienced
social media growth to under52 million views across multiple platforms, outpacingGet Out (2017), which had 46.9 million views.[5]

Box office forecast

The Tracking Board reported on March 14, "The stellar reviews out of SXSW, coupled with the fact that there isn't anything like it in
the marketplace, should help it stand out among its bigger-budget competition."[30] Deadline Hollywood said on March 15 that it is
projected to gross around $20 million in its opening weekend.[5] Variety reported on March 27 that the film "is tracking to open
between" $16 million and $30 million,[31] which reached a basement of low-$20 million by the week of its release.
[32]

BoxOffice initially estimated on February 9, 2018 that A Quiet Place would gross $17 million in its opening weekend and that it
would gross a total of $60 million in the United States.[33] By March 30, it increased its estimate to an opening weekend gross of
$27.5 million and a US total gross of $85 million.[34] The magazine said the film's trailer was well-received online and that it
appeared frequently in previews for Star Wars: The Last Jedi. BoxOffice wrote, "The horror genre has also shown a knack for over-
performing against expectations at the box office in recent years, setting this release up for potential success." It said A Quiet Place
would have to compete against another horror film, Truth or Dare, which would be released the following weekend.[33] The
magazine's staff drew "very favorable" comparisons between A Quiet Place and the 2016 films 10 Cloverfield Lane and Don't
Breathe.[35]
Theatrical run
As of April 8, 2018, A Quiet Place has grossed $50 million in the United States and Canada, and $21 million in other territories, for a
[1]
worldwide total of $71 million, against a production budget of $17 million.

Paramount Pictures released the film in 3,508 theaters in the United States and Canada on April 6, 2018, alongside Blockers,
Chappaquiddick, and The Miracle Season.[36] The film made $19 million on its first day (including $4.3 million from Thursday night
previews at 2,750 theaters), increasing weekend projections to $47 million. Unlike most horror films which are front-loaded on
Friday and suffer drops the rest of the weekend, A Quiet Place made $19.1 million on Saturday. It went on to debut to $50 million,
topping the box office and marking the biggest opening for a Paramount film sinceStar Trek Beyond in July 2016.[37]

Critical response
On review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds an approval rating of 97% based on 183 reviews, and an average
rating of 8.3/10. The website's critical consensus reads, "A Quiet Place artfully plays on elemental fears with a ruthlessly intelligent
creature feature that's as original as it is scary—and establishes director John Krasinski as a rising talent."[38] On Metacritic, the film
has a weighted average score of 82 out of 100, based on 46 critics, indicating "universal acclaim".[39] Audiences polled by
CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "B+" on an A+ to F scale, while PostTrak reported filmgoers gave it an 81% overall
positive score and a 63% "definite recommend".[37] Many critics called it one of the best horror film in recent years.
[40][41]

Writing for Rolling Stone, Peter Travers gave the film 3.5 out of 4 stars, saying, "The question Krasinski tackles is what defines a
family and what's needed to preserve it? 'Who are we,' asks Mom, 'if we can't protect our children?' The answers are worked out with
satisfying complexity and genuine feeling, proving indeed that home is where family is. This new horror classic will fry your nerves
to a frazzle."[42] The Hollywood Reporter's John DeFore described the film as "a terrifying thriller with a surprisingly warm heart"
and said, "You might have to go back to Jeff Nichols' 2011 Take Shelter to find a film that has used the fantastic this well to convey
[43]
the combination of fear and responsibility a good parent feels."

Variety's Owen Gleiberman said, "A Quiet Place is a tautly original genre-bending exercise, technically sleek and accomplished, with
some vivid, scary moments, though it's a little too in love with the stoned logic of its own premise."[4] Michael Phillips of the
Chicago Tribune gave the film 2.5 out of 4 stars and said, "My favorite moment, an encounter between Regan and one of the
monsters in a cornfield, plays with sound and image and tension, creatively. Other bits are more shameless...I don’t know if I’d call A
Quiet Place enjoyable; it’s more grueling than cathartic."[44]

Social commentary
Speaking of the various political and social commentary the film encouraged, John Krasinski said, "The best compliment you can get
on any movie is that it starts a conversation. The fact that people are leaving and talking about anything is really fun—but certainly
about deep stuff like that, is awesome."[45] Krasinski, who did not grow up with horror films, said that prior films of the genre such
as Don't Breathe (2016) and Get Out (2017) that had societal commentary were part of his research when preparing for A Quiet
Place. In addition to considering his film a metaphor for parenthood, he compared the premise to the US politics in 2018, "I think in
our political situation, that's what's going on now: You can close your eyes and stick your head in the sand, or you can try to
participate in whatever's going on." He cited Jaws (1975) as an influence with how the protagonist cop moved from New York to an
[46]
island to avoid scary situations and was forced to encounter one in his new location with shark attacks.

Matthew Monagle of Film School Rejects said A Quiet Place seemed to be "the early frontrunner for the sparsely intellectual horror
movie of the year" like previous horror films The Babadook (2014) and The Witch (2015). Monagle said Krasinski, who had directed
two previous films, was "making an unusual pivot into a genre typically reserved for newcomers" and considered it to be part of a
movement toward, rather than away from, horror films with such films layering "in storytelling, and character beats not typically
found in a horror movie".[47] Tatiana Tenreyro, writing for Bustle, said while A Quiet Place was not a silent film, "It is the first of its
kind within the modern horror genre for how little spoken dialogue it actually has." She said the rare moments of spoken dialogue
s traditional films even further".[48]
"give depth to this horror movie, showing how the narrative defies the genre’
