"Shirley" is not a biopic. It's more like a movie about Shirley Jackson, told in the style of Shirley's Gothic short stories. The visual style of the film is very distinctive, obviously Josephine Decker's style

The film aims to substitute the audience into an uneasy movie-watching experience, but in the process of plot design, the roles played by Logan Lerman and Odessa Young did not find a suitable position for their roles, which was slightly redundant or mismatched. The film also has a lot to appreciate and learn from. The film took a long time to express the ideas it wanted to express. Some of the exaggerated character styles and setting of the scene distracted the audience's attention
