Review of Equus (1977) by Matthew A — 18 Sep 2007
Not for everyone! Very dramatic and definately influenced by Freud's famous 'Case Study of Hans', this fim is dealing with the perverse and mentally unsound,delving into a good example of how one's mind may realistically be disillusioned and how ones drives can be funneled into inappropriate passions.
Many people will be deterred by the blatant handling of mental illness but for anyone considering a profession in psychology seriously, it is worth a see! The look at the psychologist's mind in this movie is what I found to be the thing that kept me most interested; his dialogue is exceptionally well done in every way!
