A Quiet Place. 2018, Starring 





  • Emily Blunt as Evelyn Abbott, 
  • John Krasinski as Lee Abbott,  Krasinski also provided the motion-capture for the extraterrestrial creatures, 
  • Millicent Simmonds as Regan Abbott, 
  • Noah Jupe as Marcus Abbott, 
  • Cade Woodward as Beau Abbott, Leon Russom as a man in the woods. Cineplex digital movie, September 29, 2021. Soundtrack: "Harvest Moon" -  Written and Performed by Neil Young. 

Anachronism: 

The opening scene takes place on "Day 89", while the remainder of the film occurs on or after "Day 472", or one year and 18 days later. But days 472 and beyond clearly occur earlier in the fall than day 89. As is noted in the "Trivia" section, the opening scene was filmed last because it required John Krasinski to shave off much of his beard, so it was indeed shot later in the fall. This anachronism could have been corrected by changing "Day 472" to, say, "Day 442".
