The Haunting of Bly Manor is filled with faceless ghosts and haunting secrets that add a chill to the mysterious love stories woven throughout history of the mansion, but some details are more noticeable than others. During the series finale, one scene in particular shines a light on Dani's relationship with the Lady in the Lake, revealing hidden clues throughout the show that may have hinted at which characters are truly as evil as they appear.
The scene in question happens in "The Beast in the Jungle" after Dani and Jamie have said goodbye to everyone and are in the truck, ready to head out and start their new life together. At 21:30, the sun reflects through the window of the truck, clearly showing that Dani now has one blue eye and one brown eye. If you were paying attention a few minutes earlier when Dani chanted, "It's you, it's me,...

[Spoiler Warning if you haven’t seen The Haunting of Bly Manor.]
In the last episode of The Haunting of Bly Manor, titled "The Beast In The Jungle," the Storyteller, played by Carla Gugino, finishes telling the story of Bly Manor and its residents. After almost all the guests go to sleep, one remains: a bride who will soon become a wife. The young woman looks at the other and says, "You said it was a ghost story. It isn't. It's a love story."
The bride's words are true. The Haunting of Bly Manor is a beautiful tale, a heart-wrenching gothic romance based on the works of Henry James. Flanagan did something extraordinary. The director, known from The Haunting of Hill House and Doctor Sleep, took the writer's work and transformed it into a refreshing sapphic love story that ultimately relates to the LGBTQ+ society on a very personal, deep level.

The Beast in the Jungle is a mystery thriller that describes the fateful relationship between John Marcher and May Bartram. This unconventional duet tells of a man who is obsessed with a premonition that something big, maybe even crushing, is about to happen to him, and a woman who decides to wait with him for it to happen.The U.S. premiere will be in April at the San Francisco Internationl Film Festival. Its world premiere was at Iffr where I was able to interview Clara.
Based on the eponymous Henry James 1903 novella, considered one of this best, The Beast in the Jungle inspired filmmaker Clara von Gool as she was “looking for a feature film story which could be told beyond that which could be told using words. I wanted to create a style to keep the depth of the story. The Henry James story inspired me to create this film,...

Aside from Iffr, a very happening event, two new and related international sales companies are launching in Berlin. Fortissimo and Nine Film are related genealogically, even to Iffr, because the founder of Fortissimo, Wouter Barendrecht (Rip 2009), came from Iffr where he was an expert on programming films from Asia.Wouter Barendrecht (Jerusalem International Film Festival Photos)
Wouter founded Fortissimo in 1991. Together with partner Michael Werner, another China aficionado, they introduced the west to Asian arthouse cinema. Barendrecht was also instrumental in re-vitalizing the Hong Kong Lesbian & Gay Film Festival in 2000. He created a staff and a fanbase whose loyalty and family-like closeness has never been replicated. Today at Iffr, he is commemorated annually by the Wouter Barendrect Award of €5,000 bestowed by CineMart in conjunction with the Wouter Barendrecht Film Foundation to a filmmaker under the age of 35 who has directed three or fewer films. The prize is decided upon by...
