Nadia Conners’ narrative feature debut is a true performance showcase. She penned a poignant script brimming with layers and complexity, put the material in the hands of an ensemble full of acting aces, and let them soar with it.
The Uninvited takes place at Sammy (Walton Goggins, Conners’ husband) and Rose’s (Elizabeth Reaser) home in the Hollywood Hills. While preparing to host a party, they get an unexpected visit from a total stranger, Lois Smith’s Helen, a woman who varies between a state of confusion and lucidity, and claims to live in their home. Throughout the evening, Sammy, Rose, Helen and other party guests, including Eva De Dominici’s Delia, a Hollywood ingénue, collide and, in the process, cause one another to confront the paths they’ve taken and the direction they’re heading.
While in Austin for The Uninvited’s SXSW world premiere, Conners, Goggins, Reaser, Smith and Dominici visited the Collider interview studio to discuss their experience taking the story from play to screenplay to the big screen.
