Review of "the Side Effect" ; We cannot see one person's mind

 Human have a curiosity, however human have difficulty on understanding space, ocean floor and peoples mind. Mind has quite difference between body. We can check blood glucose level by drawing blood and checking it. On the other hand, we cannot see one persons mind. This is described well in a movie <the Side Effect>(2013).




 A woman named Emily has suffered from a serious depression for 5 years when her husband was send to jail. Since Emily's husband came out of prison, her depression got worse. So she went to see a doctor Banks and she asked him to make her take a new drug for people suffering from depression. She got well, but soon side effect of that medicine came out. Eventually she killed her husband. At this moment this murder case starts. The matter is whether she is a murder who killed or a victim of newly released drugs side effect. At the court she was judged innocence because of NGRI which means not guilty for reason of insanity). After this the Dr. Banks have been attacked in both his private life and his practice. And he noticed something weird in Emilys case. And He begins to find what is true.


 This movie tell us how can we distinguish a sincere confession from a deceiving one.". In this movie a Haitian saw his father who passed away and. Dr. Banks sensitively noticed his mind and did not regarded this happening as a crazy thing, but a sad episode. Sincere confessions exit in the world. Some people see what the other people cannot, some people sleepwalk, and some people do not remember what he did after few minutes later. It is generally not natural but this is also real thing in their life. There is, however, a liar in this world. If he pretends that he is a main character who suffers in a miserable story, almost everyone cannot but be deceived. 
 In this situation, people have to gather each person’s story and behavior. And match them. We cannot see people’s mind and consciousness, but we can see their behavior. Behavior is to have intent, and to have intent is having consciousness. Few behaviors might not tell the truth and this sometimes might not work well. Even then, there is a chance of a sincere confession, so we have to keep faith and listen carefully to what other people told to you.
