M. Night Shyamalan on The Village

Director M. Night Shyamalan speaks about his 2004 film The Village with FLC senior programmer Tyler Wilson. This event took place as part of our retrospective Night at the Movies: An M. Night Shyamalan Retrospective. Learn more: https://www.filmlinc.org/series/night... Set in an isolated hamlet bordered by forbidding woods, M. Night Shyamalan’s arch 19th-century fable follows a blind young woman (Bryce Dallas Howard) who must decide whether to cross her community’s strict boundaries to save a gravely wounded man (Joaquin Phoenix). Beneath its period artifice, The Village plays like a post-9/11 analogy refracted through the American Gothic tradition—evoking Brockden Brown, Hawthorne, and Irving alongside Bush-era politics in its portrait of invented monsters, fear-inducing color codes, and the high cost of fabricated innocence, secrecy, and self-containment. The result is a melancholic thriller whose emotional directness is matched by its symbolic precision, with every element working in concert: Roger Deakins’s painterly cinematography, James Newton Howard’s haunting score, and a wholly committed ensemble including Sigourney Weaver, William Hurt, and Adrien Brody.
