I voted 10 for this movie. Iam not a film maker, I am a Psychiatrist and Psychotherapist, and I can tell that this is an excellent movie to explain a certain type of psychopathology and to teach as well. The character of Elsabeth Sue shows a very narcissistic and immature women who is not prepared to have a child. This situation generates a big anxiety crisis in Laura. Step by step the director is showing very carefully a change in Laura's conception of reality (despersonalization) until she finally turns delusional and psychotic, and kill her own baby!!!!! The diagnostic Post Partum Psychosis. I think that, to really appreciate this film is necessary to know a little bit of pregnancy complications, and mental health in general, this will permit the audience to understand what is going on this women.
