The Snake Pit

Item: The Snake Pit
Rating: 60

60Watch it awake.

I left angry at the ward and unwilling to let anyone call her a case.

Pass it on

The review

The title is a room, the one where the sickest are kept, and I have not shaken it. A woman is committed to a state hospital. The ward is crowded. A doctor tries to reach her. Treatment then included methods a viewer will find harsh. I will not linger. She is a person, not a case. The system helps and it harms.

I kept wanting a clean hero or a clean villain, and the picture will not give me one. A public ward can be the place that reaches her and the place that packs her in with the worst of it. I would not put this on for a casual night. I also would not let anyone in the room talk about her as a diagnosis instead of a name.

Keep The Snake Pit in the record.

Live Historic number 60. Yours can differ.

The glance

Household is the thin one.

Is a marriage, a parent, or a child a real life here, or just a prop?

This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.

Guess Who's Coming to Dinner

71 instead of 60

Guess Who's Coming to Dinner is still a drama film, and it scores 71 instead of 60. What you gain is household: He will not marry her unless her parents bless it at their own table.

An Arthur Thanksgiving

60Watch it awake.

A small holiday special with a real table. Fine for children.

Pass it on

The review

Arthur's neighborhood has always been better at ordinary friction than at myths. Thanksgiving here is cooking, guests, a snag, and a meal that still happens. That is more useful than a pageant. Gratitude that has not met a late aunt and a crowded kitchen is only a slogan.

It will not change a life. It may remind a room that the feast is the people who came, including the difficult ones. Put it on while you peel the potatoes.
