3. The Village
The Village is a 2004 American psychological horror film, written, produced, and
directed by M. Night Shyamalan, and starring Joaquin Phoenix, Adrien Brody, Bryce Dallas
Howard, William Hurt, Sigourney Weaver, and Brendan Gleeson. The film is about a village whose
inhabitants live in fear of creatures inhabiting the woods beyond it referred to as "Those We
Don't Speak Of." Like other films written and directed by Shyamalan from the same time
period, The Village has a twist ending.
This film had high levels of secrecy surrounding it, to protect the expected twist
ending. Despite that, the script was stolen over a year before the film was released. Reports
noted that this seemed to have something to do with a change to the film's ending. In the original
version, the film ends after Ivy climbs over the wall and it is revealed to the audience that the film
takes place in the present day. The village seen in the film was built in its entirety in one field
outside Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania. Production on the film started in October 2003, with delays
because some scenes needing fall foliage could not be shot because of a late fall season. Its
original title was The Woods, but the name was changed because a film in production by
director Lucky McKee, The Woods (2006), already had that title.
