Thriller inspiration - The Orphan

The Orphan - 2009 (Thriller)
The Orphan is another film which we took a lot of inspiration from as it is a psychological thriller and has very similar aspects. The film stars Vera Farmiga as Kate Coleman and Peter Sarsgaard as husband John who struggle to cope with the lose of their third child who was stillborn. Then the couple decide to adopt a young girl called Esther (Isabelle Fuhrman). Throughout the film Kate  has a hunch that something maybe wrong with Esther as she seriously injured another girl. Also, her suspicion deepens when the couple find out from Sister Abigail (head of the orphanage) warning them that bad things seem to happen when Esther is around. I think one key element from The Orphan that we will interpret is that we'll have a young girl as the main character of the film to resemble innocence and deception.
