## Caption

“Presence” opens on an old house with a new face. A posh, suburban house complete with two stories, a spacious porch and a fresh coat of cobalt. The camera floats to the front door before gliding through the entryway, along the expansive kitchen and dining room, across the living room and up a switchback staircase. We are then perfectly positioned to view into the home’s three bedrooms before finding shelter in a closet. Through this cold open, director Steven Soderbergh displays that the camera isn’t here just to present a presence to an audience, but that we are the presence. 

However, “Presence” proves that cinematography dripping with nuance doesn’t necessarily translate to a successful end product, as this ghost story is loaded with dry storytelling.

Immediately following is a subtle, chuckle-inducing realtor, played by Julia Fox, presenting the house to a family of four — Rebecca, Chris, Chloe and Tyler — looking for a new home. After a brief financial back and forth between the realtor and Rebecca (Lucy Liu), the screen cuts to black. What seemed to be an original exclamation underlining the story’s true inauguration soon becomes an immersion-shattering annoyance regularly occurring and butting between scenes.
