Frightening & Intense Scenes
-
- A drunken man falls off of a stage
- Helen's mother attempts to commit suicide by drowning in a lake. When her daughter calls for her, it is almost as if she can't hear her. Her daughter follows her into the lake and it is not until Helen taps her that she is able to come back to reality and not continue to attempt suicide.
