Anna Crowe (Olivia Williams):
LIGHT, QUICK FOOTSTEPS AS ANNA CROWE moves down the stairs.
Anna is the rare combination of beauty and innocence. She stands in the chilly basement in an elegant summer dress that outlines her slender body. Her gentle eyes move across the empty room and come to rest on a rack of wine bottles covering one entire wall.
Malcolm Crowe (Bruce Willis):
MALCOLM CROWE sits on the floor at the coffee table, his vest and tie on the sofa behind him. A jacket and an overcoat lay on a briefcase next to him.
Malcolm is in his thirties with thick, wavy hair and striking, intelligent eyes that squint from years of intense study. His charming, easy-going smile spreads across his face.
Cole Sear (Haley Joel Osment):
COLE SEAR steps out his front door. Cole is a munchkin of a boy with large, black eyes that seem to take in everything around him.
His hair is dark, with a small patch of jet white on the side. Cole carefully locks the door behind him.
He moves to the bottom of the stairs and looks around nervously.
Anxiously.
The eight-year-old child reaches into his pocket and slips on a pair of VERY LARGE GLASSES. They look comical on him.
Lynn Sear (Toni Colette):
LYNN SEAR reaches in and pulls out a blouse.
She shakes it in the air and slips it on as she dresses hurriedly for work.
Lynn is a woman in her late twenties. One hundred percent South Philly. Hair teased. She chews on an early morning piece of Trident. Under all of it, Lynn Sear is an attractive and sweet-looking young woman.
