#56: Which movie has the most intriguing house setting?
Last week we Quantum Leapt into movies we’d like to interact in. Shannon jumped into fair Verona and saved Romeo from tragic death. You all approved and as a result, she gets to choose this week’s question. Shannon asks:

Seems like at a minimum the winning answer should have some secret passageways.
In the movie Oblivion, Tom Cruise’s character has a secret little lake side cabin in the woods that barely appears in the movie except for a handful of short scenes. I’ve watched that movie two more times for no other reason except to see that “home” again.
The little abode is more tent than cabin. It does have a roof, but it’s almost entirely open to the elements with a quick unobstructed walk from the bed to water’s edge. The stone fireplace dominates the space and adds to the illusion that it’s a cabin with walls.
Everything from the simple cotton curtains to the bedding and rugs are all well-worn and broken in like a favorite old hat or sweater. There’s absolutely nothing fancy here. It’s a ramshackle little place with some rough hand built furniture. The curtains hang from stripped tree branches. There’s stacks of books on counters and filling shelves all helter skelter-like and every surface is littered with little odds and ends and bits of nostalgia. A large vinyl record collection and a vintage player occupy a space only marginally larger than the book shelves—a forgivable flaw. 😏
In all honesty, if not for the books, personal items and the breathtaking surroundings, it would be too primitive to be described as inspiring or cozy and even with those items, it’s still not exactly everyone’s cup of tea, but I would be completely intrigued as I combed through books and records and inspected curious personal items and then to go off to explore wide open spaces searching for wildflowers and little woodland creatures... if that’s not intriguing, I’m not sure what is. 😊
Here’s a peak at my final answer
