Lockhart, a successful young director of a financial institution in New York , was sent to a spa in the Swiss Alps by a high-level executive to pick up the company's boss, Drum Bullock. On the way to the mountain, Lockhart’s driver told him about the strange incidents and extraordinary history of this nursing home: According to legend, it was a baron’s castle more than two hundred years ago, and the baron has been doing it on the villagers. Human experiments were conducted to cure the infertility of his wife (and sister), so as to maintain the purity of the next generation's blood. In the end, his experiment was successful, but the villagers discovered his secret and burned the castle in anger.
After arriving at the destination, Lockhart did not see the boss, and the doctor in charge asked him to come again tomorrow.

    Retro nostalgia is a kind of psychological suggestion, which is all presented in the context of the picture. Gothic thriller is a kind of ideological flow, which is expressed in the interlacing of light and shadow. The form expression and the pacing of the technique are really advanced above the level, and the soul is imprisoned and harmonious. Thought control does create a fascinating beauty, but success is also a form of failure, too many complicated psychological descriptions and body language, and multi-stance complaints or confessions have become the reasons for lack, thankless

    Using the Alpine castle as the background is a shortcut, and the texture of "Interview with the Vampire" was shot. The helpless horror, suspense and revealing parts were diluted by the gorgeousness of the Super Bowl commercials. I don’t know if Japanese people will be very greedy when they watch this, because the eel is so big and fat.

A Cure for Wellness quotes

  • Pembroke: [Lockhart now reading the letter sitting at boardroom table] There is a sickness inside us. Rising like the bile that leaves that bitter taste at the back of our throats. It's there in every one of you seated around the table. We deny its existence until one day the body rebels against the mind and screams out, "I am not a well man." No doubt you will think only of the merger. That unclean melding of two equally diseased institutions. But the truth cannot be ignored. For only when we know what ails us can we hope to find the cure. I will not return. Do not attempt to contact me again. Sincerely, Roland E. Pembroke.

    Hank Green: Well, Mr. Lockhart, what do you make of that?

    Lockhart: Clearly he's lost his mind.

    Wilson: Our thought exactly.

    Hollis: Man goes for two-week spa vacation and has a complete mental breakdown.

    Humphrey: [viewing his smartphone] Who the hell takes the waters in the 21st century anyway?

  • Lockhart: Another ballerina?

    Lockhart's Mother: She's not like the others.

    Lockhart: Why's that?

    Lockhart's Mother: [winding the music box] She lives in a dream.

    Lockhart: [as the figure twirls to a melancholy tune] But she's dancing.

    Lockhart's Mother: That's because she doesn't know she's dreaming.
