She sees her stalker ex-boyfriend working at the clinic, and I thought the whole movie was gonna be the old &#8220;are these things really happening or is she actually crazy&#8221; routine, but it becomes clear only a few scenes later that he is a dangerous stalker abusing his position of power and her inability to escape.  I haven&#8217;t seen <em>Side Effects<\/em> yet, but between this and <em><a href=\"\/journal\/archives\/12676\">The Knick<\/a><\/em> and <em><a href=\"\/journal\/archives\/7424\">Contagion<\/a><\/em>, Soderbergh has got a thing for dangerous hospitals.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/journal\/image18\/unsane1.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There is no path to happiness from here.&#8221;  The stalker is Joshua Leonard of the <em>Blair Witch Project<\/em>.

Josh also kills unstable patient Juno Temple (the blonde one in <em><a href=\"\/journal\/archives\/12092\">Jack &#038; Diane<\/a><\/em>) and Claire&#8217;s mom, then miseries Claire&#8217;s foot when she runs away.  I think she kills his ass in the end, the hospital gets busted for being run like a secret prison, and Claire gets a promotion at work.  Whole movie was shot on a phone, with some unique angles and fishbowl views.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/journal\/image18\/unsane2.jpg\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Claire Foy (of Nicolas Cage monk-actioner Season of the Witch) makes the huge mistake of confessing suicidal thoughts to her therapist, gets admitted to a psychiatric ward for evaluation for a couple days, which gets extended to a week because she keeps railing against her confinement.
