You cannot hide from your own consciousness. That sounds like the movie’s slogan, and I’m afraid that’s the only thing that’s interesting.
Film search, as a very respectable site, does not approve of reviews consisting of repeated repetition of "Breed!" Gaadest! Therefore, I will try to comply with the rules of this serious place, justifying my point of view more correctly.
So, given. A young girl, without friends, without relatives, with nightmares comes from childhood. A wealthy businessman too busy to give time to his children. Question: What connects them? The correct answer is absolutely nothing. Well, they can't let a girl off the street - without letters, recommendations, decent work experience, finally - governess to the children of a rich man. What a naive building! Yes, businessmen are a busy people, so was there not a person in his state who would scour the biography of the alleged teacher for defamatory incidents and the presence of cockroaches in his head?
Next. A large mansion, many rooms - and from the whole state of servants one housekeeper (part-time secretary) and one kind of coming cook. No maids, no guards. Apparently, the ghosts of former nannies are cleaning and guarding the house.
Next. The boy was expelled from school, and the girl does not attend at all? Sick? Mental? Or was this misunderstanding in the person of Anna (Lili Sobieska) alone going to give them a comprehensive education?
These are the most striking, almost “material” inconsistencies that caught my eye. But there's psychology. This economy, did hormones hit her in the head? What the hell did she leave the hallucinating Anna alone with the baby? And they can be called children because they are 12 years old, not kindergarten.
In general, it is clear that the case is murky. Illogical, incoherent, sewn with white threads plot, which in vain tries to weave mysticism and scare the ancient "boo"
