The film is set against the backdrop of World War II. The war is over, and the hostess, Grace, with her two young children, lives on an isolated island in England, waiting for her husband to return from the battlefield. The thick fog on the island persisted for a long time, the two children suffered from a strange disease of being afraid of light, and three new servants came to the family's ancient house. However, the series of strange events caused Grace to collapse. The curtains were opened for no reason, the sound of walking upstairs, and the sound of the piano playing from time to time, all made Grace feel terrified. Finally, through the eyes of the witch, we know the truth. The heroine suffocated her pick-up child because she couldn't stand the loneliness all the year round, and then committed suicide. Three of the family's servants died of tuberculosis at an early age. The husband that Grace found in the mist had also died in the war and became a fool. When the husband returned home, he found that the children had also died. He felt guilty and felt that if he had not gone to participate in the war, the tragedy might not have happened, and finally chose to leave. Looking at the world from the perspective of a ghost, in fact, there is no difference between humans and ghosts, and they all have people they care about and are reluctant to give up.

    What is stronger than Hitchcock-style movies is that it focuses on the interpretation of actors' acting skills. The weak point is the appearance of the father, which does not play a role in exaggerating horror, triggering suspense, or deepening the theme.

    Compared with the sixth sense, the story is complicated, and it turns out to be very messy. I especially don't like a scene with the fog in the middle. Nicole Kidman is similar in everything, hey
