------Interpretation of the
heroine Miranda (Halley Berry) of "Gothica" is an excellent criminal psychologist who treats mentally ill inmates in a husband’s establishment Work in prison, but Miranda’s life of marriage and love was suddenly completely subverted in one day...
It all started with Miranda’s psychological trust in the "female patient" Chloe (Penelope Cruz) at the beginning of the film Counseling, Chloe in the picture is very pathologically narrating how he has been raped even in prison, and desperately said to Miranda: "How can you believe someone who thinks you are a lunatic?" Yes, Miranda thinks she is a lunatic, and everyone, including me, thinks she is a lunatic with mental problems. This is the sentence that runs through the story. On that stormy night, Miranda ran into a girl shrouded in flames while driving home. When she woke up, she was already in the psychiatric prison where she worked. At the same time, she was accused of murdering her husband, Doug. When trying to calmly analyze and recall, the weird girl will appear, or guide or prompt. Everyone who envelops her former colleagues and friends thinks that she is crazy, and no one believes what she said, and at this time she realized it. The feeling of distrust that Chloe said. Overnight, Miranda, who had a happy life, faced a horrible situation and was on the verge of collapse...
Miranda showed her isolation and helplessness at the same time she also showed her calmness and wisdom as a psychiatrist, and her acting skills for the heroine. It’s a big test. As I have seen, director Matthew Casowitz’s positioning as an actor is in place. The actor Halle Berry was sometimes mad, sometimes obsessed, sometimes sick, and sometimes in prison. Calmness, as well as the state of wearing various extreme emotions, fully reflects her accurate grasp of Miranda's role. At the same time, the heroine's screams, the timely horrible sound effects, and the tension created by the always gloomy and depressing prison made my nerves tightly affected from beginning to end.
With some hiss, Miranda tried to find out the truth in a desperate situation to save herself. In the meantime, she discovered that the mysterious girl was actually Rachel, the daughter of her husband, Doug’s partner Phil, who passed away four years ago. It turned out to be a supernatural undead who has been guiding her. As a psychiatrist who believes in science, all this It seems a bit weird.
As an atheist, I also think that in the logical world sometimes our eyes and thinking alone cannot solve all the truth. Therefore, in the movie, it is more reasonable to use our soul to lead us to seek the opposite of the truth. At the same time, the development of the plot can proceed more smoothly. Are there real ghosts in the world? The so-called "believe there will be, and if you don't believe it, there will be nothing", the so-called ghosts and gods are just the product of our psychological activities. However, this view does not apply to the film.
With the arrival of the climax of the sex movie, Miranda escaped from prison. It was also at this time that she discovered in her basement that her husband was the murderer who sexually abused and killed several women. Suddenly, it was a bolt from the blue. The calm Miranda showed his extraordinary wisdom at this time. Through the clues of "not allon" left on the wall of the crime scene in the development of the plot, Miranda thought of Chloe being raped in prison. He quickly realized that the murderer was not only her husband alone, but also locked in Bob, who was also a prison officer as a close friend of her husband. Through face-to-face communication with Bob and analysis of his growth environment and psychological development, everything It’s all clear... Relying on wit, bravery and strong will, Miranda was finally released from prison safely, and said to Chloe, who was also released from prison, “Thank you for teaching me how to listen.”
The sentence at the end of the story . The words point out the thought-provoking sentence "Learn to listen". Yes, even for patients with mental problems, listening is very necessary. We need not only the brain, but the heart...
