Thoughts on Obsession: SPOILER!
This movie was amazing. Let me just start out by saying that. The combination of quality lighting, sound, and acting really brought this movie together. Two main actors really stuck out to me, and those were the main characters. Michael and Inde did such an amazing job. The way Inde did that weird reverse walk, think towards the end, was so creepy. Her facial expressions were very impressive. As for Michael, I think his best scenes were towards the end. When he was in the bathroom, just the look of despair on his face really made me sad. There were like 20 different emotions that he displayed with just one look. People say Bear was a villain and a bad guy, and I agree, but I really liked his character and acting skills. Bravo! The way the real Nikki kept trying to get out was really a nice touch. How she would randomly snap back to reality and start screaming. I gotta say, the phone scene when Bear tries to call to cancel the wish is so scary. I wonder what she was going through? Another scene that stood out was when Bear was trying to sneak off, and the real Nikki was sleep-talking to him. This was such a good touch and really made me feel bad for her. Normally, in movies, I hate nighttime or dark lighting because you can't see what is going on. A cool fight scene is ruined because you can't see what is happening. With this movie, I wouldn't have a single bulb or whatever light is measured in. I think the darkness on her face during certain scenes was amazing, because it always got me wondering, "What is she thinking?" I do want to point out the scene where Ian wishes for a billion dollars, and Bear just screams, "NOOOO." WOW, that scream just sounded so heartbroken and disappointed. Idk why, but I really liked that. I've watched the movie twice so far and have definitely missed some details, so let me know something cool you noticed. Maybe an "easter egg" or a cool detail. Good job, Curry Baker.
