愛是真正的醫生

************這篇影評可能有雷************

這是一部講述精神病人及治療方法的電影, 雖然故事情節沒有《禁閉島》那樣引人入勝,扣人心弦,但這真的可以說是一部好片。片中許多情節和暗示首尾呼應,需要看第二遍時才能領會其中的精妙,例如,男主拿出懷錶看時間時痴醉的眼神,他為什麼會去玩弄骷髏頭去電青蛙,以及他對女主所說的每一句欲言又止的話。。。
而主題曲通過女主親自彈奏出來,更是令該片的配樂與故事情節和人物刻畫完美結合,渾然一體,特別是結尾的畫面簡直太美想重複看。

當然,最重要的還是片中關於精神治療的探索,絕對是達到了靈性電影的新高度。雖然我不是醫生不懂精神治療,但是覺得影片中關於精神治療的方法大概可分為三類:
一、以痛止痛式的療法。這是老院長使用的方法,這種療法在今天看起來顯得粗暴殘忍,甚至喪心病狂。不過在一百多年前的時代,當精神治療問題還是如此神秘莫測,醫生用這種方法又不能不說是一種探索嘗試,通過讓患者面對最痛苦的事情,以此來控制/克服恐懼。這種療法的效果顯然差強人意,往往是讓患者舊痛不去,反增新苦。
不過,認識到內心的「恐懼」是一切精神問題的罪魁禍首這一點卻是對的。只是這種「恐懼」隱藏涵蓋之深,恐怕不只是一百年前的人所知甚少,一百年後的人估計也不會了解的太多。。。
二、自然療法。Dr. Lamb控制醫院後,將正常的醫護人員關在地下室,而把病人當做正常人,雖然病人看似可以正常生活,但是也無法得到真正的治癒。
三、角色代入療法。Newgate治療絕食婆婆時,用這種先肯定和認同病人的幻覺,與之建立信任關係,然後再慢慢啟發她面對真相。。。這。。。這不正是聖靈喚醒我們所用的方法嗎?簡直不能讚的更多。
    回想一下那個畫面,在一群瘋子之間,一個瘋子在醫治另一個連醫生都無法治癒的瘋子?這他媽的到底誰是醫生誰是瘋子啊,學習ACIM的朋友這時想必會心領神會了,這不是在說,愛 (聖靈)才是真正的醫生嗎。

台詞賞析:
------------------
What's it like? To be in love?
(小女孩問Eliza的這句話或可說是最關鍵的一句台詞了,串聯了整部電影的思想內涵,當時Eliza欲言又止,我以為是因為那種感覺難以言表,直到影片的最後才恍然明白那不是因為Eliza無法言表,而是因為當時她也不知道!)
-----------------
Eliza: Why did you come here?
Newgate: I came here for you.
Eliza: For me? Why?
Newgate: I-I saw you six months ago at a medical lecture.
I saw you.
You looked so lost and so beautiful.
It sickened me to see you exhibited like a sideshow freak.
I would have stopped it if I could, but I couldn't.
I-I couldn't.
So, I vowed there and then that I would find you
and that nothing would stop me.
Eliza: Did you even know my name?
Newgate: It didn't matter.
Eliza: No, it does matter.
Saying otherwise proves you're no better than any of them.
Newgate: Than who?
Eliza: My family, my doctors, my husband.
You act like I'm some precious thing to be bartered
or put on display or possessed.
Newgate: It-It's not like that with me, Eliza.
Eliza: No? How is it different?
Newgate: It's you who possesses me.
(與通常的愛情故事不同,Newgate的這一見鍾情包含的不僅僅是愛情。。。)
-------------------------
Dr. Lamb: We're all mad, Dr. Newgate.
Some are simply not mad enough to admit it.
(我們都瘋了,只是大部份人都不敢承認,又或者壓根就沒有意識到而已!)
------------------------
Newgate: You know, Eliza said you were always very kind to her
and the other patients.
Marion: I loved them like my own children.
Newgate: Even Lamb?
Marion: There is some good even in poor Silas.
Though I fear it has become deranged by madness.
Newgate: How do I understand him?
Marion: Your first instinct was the right one.
Think of him as your patient.
Shine the light of your sympathy into the darkest corners of his mind,
and maybe then you'll find what he so desperately wants
to keep hidden from you and from himself.
Only then will you have what you need.
Newgate: To defeat him?
Marion: No. To heal him.
(令人尊敬的Marion醫生)
---------------------
Eliza: Help me. One of you. Please, I'm not mad.........
(許多人都聽到了Eliza的求救之聲,可是沒有人會相信她幫助她,除非他也是個瘋子,被愛/聖靈感召的瘋子。。。。)
