Hannibal (2013)
The best and worse of ourselves
As a student of psychology in love with the phenomena of perverse structure (a.k.a sociopaths), the Hannibal series - which I had already begun to watch in 2013, the year of launch - drew my attention. After watching two other series on mental phenomena, Mindhunter and The Alienist - the two, also, investigating criminals - the series directed by Michael Rymes was next on the list.
The relationship maintained by the investigator and murderer was able to provoke me to various feelings, mainly anxiety.
Hannibal, as Will was lead to understand, placed himself in the prision, where he would not fail to be seen. Hence, we can understand his surrender as an attempt by the serial killer to curb his deeds.
Hannibal ended lives and gave up his own. "You know where I am," Hannibal says incarcerated.
The final episode is of great mastery. "That's what I wanted for you - and for me," adds Hannibal. Since Will was already unable to live a life in which Hannibal did not remember his own evil, and his absurd acts, he participated in the plot with his rival - conscious
The romance between a pervert, the mental disorder, and the common investigator touches us as he denounces us dark desires and interests. As Freud says, perversion is the negative of neurosis: what the neurotic fantasizes, the perverse does in fact.
Hannibal takes Will, during all the plots, to acts. The last act, the most awaited, finally realized. Will embodies all humanity, doubt, fear, hesitation, madness. But it also borrows from Hannibal, which builds during the plot, certainty. Certainty this staged in a last act, that also causes its death.
Krigen (2015)
Other face of war
It is a film that makes us reflect on the situation that a soldier is mentally faced in battle. When Søren says Claus "It's alright to be sad. We're all sad. It's completely alright" explicit the image they have and which ourselves help to build of soldiers as heroes, inhuman deprived of the right to sentimentalize. The oppression and hierarchy is very large in the military field and in many cases leads to suicide (the statistics are large but unknown). I recommend the film to all who are interested in discovering another face of a soldier, who is faced with issues such as the distance from family, loss and guilt. A human look underexplored so intensely in many war movies.
