Every Breath You Take Movie Aesthetic Poster

Phillip Clark (Casey Affleck) is a psychiatrist, his wife, Grace Clark (Michelle Monaghan), is a realtor. They are struggling to maintain their marital life after the tragic death of their son. That tragedy has created a communication gap between them. Their daughter, Lucy (India Eisley), has been expelled from the school because of drugs. Philip is going through a tough time and in the meantime, his patient, Daphne (Emily Alyn Lind), whom he miraculously saved, commits suicide. Philip's family is tearing apart, and now his job is in danger. Then, Daphne's brother, James Flagg (Sam Claflin), appears in the story. He pretends to be a noble guy, but he isn't like that, James's character is chaotic.

It's upsetting the way Phillip's character has to undergo all the pain, he seemed helpless and lonely throughout the movie. The story continues to take depressing turns until the end. I didn't like the way India Eisley's character was written, maybe the director wanted to point out poor parenting. There's a thin line between being naive and being stupid.

Why does a good guy have to go through all of this?

This is not one of those fun-to-watch movies, it is saddening and quite predictable, but it holds its surprise. Yet, people don't usually like the story of a bad guy's dominance. You may have seen the familiar type of storyline before, but the cast is exceptional, especially Casey Affleck, his sad and silent character suits his personality. Casey encouraged me to watch this movie.

(If you're planning to watch this movie, do not watch the trailer because it reveals the plot.)

The Silencing (2020): Where is Gwen Swanson Wildlife Sanctuary?

-

I would say that this article is for the people who love to wanderlust, especially for the ones who have watched The Silencing (2020) and are wondering about the various locations featured in the movie. Nikolaj Coster-Waldau is shown as a guardian of Gwen Swanson Wildlife Sanctuary. The name of the sanctuary is inspired by his lost daughter, Gwen Swanson. You must have noticed the forest scenery, river, and lake. First of all, I want to clarify that the story of the movie is not based on real-life events, the story is completely fictional, also the characters. Although, it is a watchable thriller. The ending of the movie may have disappointed you as it turned out to be a revenge story. The movie is originally located in Sudbury, Ontario, Canada. The city scenes are from Sudbury. Sadly, there is no Gwen Swanson Wildlife Sanctuary in Sudbury, but the scenes are from the forest of Sudbury. The first drone shot of the movie, where a dead body is floating in the river, is Onaping River. T

It is about the pain caused by imperialism and colonialism.
