Directed by: Jan de Bont
Starring: Bruce Dern, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Liam Neeson, Lili Taylor, Owen Wilson, Virginia Madsen
Continuity mistake: While they're all having their first dinner at Hill House, everyone has a little red wine. The wine levels in Lili Taylor's glass go up and down between different shots. (00:24:35)
Theo: You know what, the rest of you may hate your insomnia but I'm not sure I want a cure for mine. That's when I get all my best ideas... I'm alone, occasionally... with no distractions. My mind is racing with creative ideas and come 3am I feel like a genius.
Trivia: When Eleanor is in her bedroom, look in the mirror: both times you see children heads or portraits.
