Film introduction
The film is based on Poe Poe's short story "The Therapy of Dr. Thar and Professor Fisher."
It tells the story of a psychiatric hospital "doctor" who falls in love with a beautiful female patient.
The story takes place in 1899, when Newgate (the male protagonist), a graduate of Oxford Medical School, arrives at the madhouse and stumbles upon the real dean trapped underground.
It turned out that the real dean and the doctors had been drugged by the fake dean and locked up in the dungeon.
However, the true dean and the doctors were not good people, and they used all kinds of cruel methods to humiliate the patients.
It turned out that the director of the fake madhouse had been trapped by the demons of the heart, and when he was a military doctor, he robbed and killed many patients who lacked arms and legs.
After some twists and turns, in the end, the male protagonist rescued the female protagonist.
However, the wonderful story is that after rescuing the heroine, it turns out that the male protagonist is not a doctor at all! He himself was a psychopath.
It turns out that the male protagonist is also a patient treated by the legitimate Dr. Newgate, and no one knows his true identity, just because he looks at the heroine in the crowd and likes her.
Therefore, the male protagonist steals the identity of Dr. Newgate and goes to the lunatic asylum to rescue the female protagonist.
Male protagonist: A patient diagnosed with lying disorder
The heroine is right, indeed I have not seen a doctor apologize
Dr. Newgate: Crazy people say they're not crazy
The real Dean in the Dungeon, played by Michael Kane (in Batman, the butler)
The fake dean is played by Ben Kingsley, much like a Hong Kong skinhead star
The heroine was diagnosed with chronic hysteria
The male protagonist tied to an electric chair
The male and female protagonists are together
You are my antidote
The film reminds me of the American writer Joseph Heller's anti-war novel Twenty-Two Rules of War:
Only a madman may be allowed to fly, but only if he or she himself or herself applies, and it is also stipulated that anyone who can realize the dangers of flying and apply for exemption from flight shall continue to carry out the flight.
In the film, the heroine repeatedly emphasizes that she is not crazy! But doctors say that mentally ill people generally say they are not mentally ill.
In the film, the heroine says: I am crazy, you are not crazy, we can't be together.
The male protagonist said: I am also crazy, I am madly in love with you.
One psychopath likes another psychosis, maybe this is called love, two identical two goods can go to everything.
When you have lost and gained several times, the choice will become rational, that may not be called love, that is called reasonable arrangement.
In the film, the head nurse said that there is no incurable disease in this world, as long as you can find your own antidote.
Sometimes your antidote is not a drug, but a person.
