Spoilers ahead for theSharp Objectsfinale.
director Jean-Marc Vallee told Vulture.
And then she killed the new friend!
Probably to have more teeth to finish her piece of art!
Her obsession with teeth, their obsession with perfection, its destroying them.
This image of perfection is also a reflection of destruction.
Theres something about reading and writing something thats very different from actually seeing it as an audience member.
I felt unsettled, queasy, frightened.
I was the audience member going,Dont look in the dollhouse!

her new friend Mae.
There was a lot of back and forth about how far to go with camouflaging the teeth.
And then theres a reproduction of this crazy house?
The house has a dollhouse?
It is a horror house.
We had two-and-a-half to three months.
It was kind of like Goldilocks.
One was too big, one size was too small, and one was just right, Paino said.
In the end, the dollhouse was built at three-quarter-inch scale and stood at five-feet wide and three-feet tall.
Everything had to be made from scratch.
The whole process was a nail biter.
The shingles on the roof, we got those measured.
They have to be made by hand.
You cant get those at the dollhouse store, Paino said.
There were maybe 1,000 shingles that have to be made, weathered, and painted.
It was very time-consuming.
Amy needs time to get samples and look at different types of furniture, see what wallpaper is available.
Some of our wallpaper was extremely exclusive and hand-painted and came from overseas.
Everything was replicated, from artwork to pillows to tchotchkes.
But we really tried to make it as true to life as possible.
Doll figures forevery member of the familywere made, too.
(Even Alan.)
We made furniture for all of it, Paino said.
Adora helped her make the house so perhaps they didnt spend as much time on that.
But if someone trips and it falls, its not going to break into a million pieces.
It was very protected.
It was extremely expensive to make.
But Flynn and showrunnerMarti Noxonleft that detail out of their scripts, so the scene was never filmed.
When its inside the house, its a little creepy.
Its a house in a house.
Its a little strange.
