Wonderful!

Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 9 novembre 2002

Alan Rickman stars as Dr. Frantz Anton Mesmer, an Austrian physician in the 18th century who is considered to be the most influential figure in the development of hypnosis. Dr. Mesmer used magnets and metal frames in water to put his patients in a trance-like state in order to cleanse the magnetic forces in the body. He believed that a person�s emotional and mental state was directly related to physical illness. He felt that everyone had the ability to heal themselves of any disease just by breaking through the mental barriers and �re-aligning� the magnetic forces. (I believe they call it �life energy� today.)
Dr. Mesmer did achieve success with his treatment but was ridiculed and ostracized by the medical community. The staid medical establishment of the time did not approve of Mesmer�s oftentimes theatrical performances and excessive showmanship. As a result, Mesmer was condemned by his medical colleagues and forced to leave Vienna. He practiced in Austria, Switzerland and Germany before settling in France.
Mr. Rickman truly captures the charismatic and controversial character of Dr. Mesmer. This film shows how the physician practiced his craft but I felt it didn�t really explain how he developed his technique originally. (In fact, the film has a few unexplained gaps in it.) The movie focuses on two of Mesmer�s patients; one is the cousin of his wife, the other is a gifted musician he encounters at a recital. His wife�s cousin, a young girl, seems hopelessly brain damaged and he never really helps her. The musician is a beautiful young woman (Amanda Ooms) who is blind. Mesmer believes he can cure her blindness and becomes quite taken with her. He discovers that her father has been sexually abusing her since she was a young child. She lost her sight at the age of 3 and Mesmer believes that the abuse is perhaps what caused her blindness. The doctor�s treatment to help her regain her sight seemingly fails until she falls and bumps her head. The impression here is that the fall is what really restores her sight but Mesmer (and the woman) believes he did it. Also highlighted in the movie is Mesmer�s relationship with his wife, which is miserable. They seem to hate one another and I wondered why he married such a shrew in the first place. Another unexplained gap is when Mesmer is shown living in Paris for two years and you don�t know if he is still married or not.
Even with the unexplained gaps this is still a very good movie. It is a must have for the Alan Rickman fan (which I am). I would have given it 5 stars except for the gaps and the ending, which leaves you hanging. After two years, the young woman is brought in to testify against Dr. Mesmer at a hearing. With her sight restored, the musician returned home and, in so doing, returned to her sexually abusive father. She felt abandoned by Mesmer and this, along with her father�s abuse, resulted in the loss of her sight yet again. The movie ends with Mesmer and her just sitting silently together. Maybe I missed something but I just didn�t get the ending. I�ll have to watch the movie again. Still, I do recommend it and perhaps you will find yourself mesmerized by it.

Für Rickman-Fans ein Muss

Recensito in Germania il 23 agosto 2007

Acquisto verificato

Für alle Fans von Alan Rickman ist dieser Film natürlich ein Muss. Denn es ist der erste Streifen, in dem Rickman die Hauptrolle spielt. Leider gab es nach Beendigung der Dreharbeiten so viele Rechtsstreitigkeiten, dass er nie groß raus kam. (Einer der Produzenten zog sich zurück, weil der Regisseur und Rickman angeblich Potters Drehbuch so verändert hätten, dass es mit dem ursprünglichen Skript nichts mehr zu tun habe, so der umstrittene Vorwurf.)
Rickman spielt überzeugend, ebenso die anderen Darsteller. (Ladies, aufgepasst, mit Hauptdarstellerin Amanda Ooms gibt es eine der besten Kussszenen, die Rickman je im Film hingelegt hat.)
Was allerdings die titelgebende Figur anbelangt, Franz Anton Mesmer, so zoomt sich der Film zu sehr auf die Episonde mit Maria Theres(i)a Paradis ein (gespielt von Ooms). Natürlich war die Behandlung der blinden Pianistin in der Tat eine Schlüsselszene in Mesmers Leben. Der Skandal, den ihre Heilung und ihr späterer Rückfall veranlassten, war der Grund, warum Mesmer fluchtartig Wien verlassen musst und nach Paris ging, wo er zum gefeierten Modearzt wurde, auch wenn seine Wissenschaft vom "animalischen Magnetismus" dort ebenfalls nicht anerkannt wurde.
Mesmer war der Erste, der erkannte, dass Leiden auch seelische Ursachen haben können. Und heute ist man fast sicher, dass Paradis' "Blindheit" in der Tat durch traumatische Kindheitserlebnisse, wahrscheinlich Inzest, ausgelöst wurde. Das gibt der Film sehr gut wieder. Allerdings bleibt die ganze kompexe Persönlichkeit Mesmers etwas auf der Strecke.
Wer sich mehr dafür interessiert, dem sei etwa das Fernsehspiel mit E. F. Fürbringer und Michael Hinz ans Herz gelegt, das den alten Mesmer Revue passieren lässt. Der promovierte Arzt Mesmer hat übrigens nie behauptet, er könne Leiden heilen, die körperliche Ursachen haben, und war somit eben kein Scharlatan, vor allem weil er nicht gegen besseres Wissen gehandelt hat, sondern von seiner Methode überzeugt war. Heute ist zwar seine Magnetismus-Theorie widerlegt, er gilt aber als einer der Väter der Hypnose bzw. der Psychotherapie.
Und nun noch eine kleine Randbemerkung, weil Mesmer zufällig eine Landsmann von mir ist: Er war kein Wiener, kein Österreicher im heutigen Sinne!!! Er wurde in Iznang am Bodensee geboren und starb 1815, nachdem er fast völlig in Vergessenheit geraten und die letzten 20 Jahre seines Lebens ruhelos umher gezogen war, auch am Bodensee, in Meersburg.

Noch eine Anmerkung zur DVD: leider spärlich ausgestattet und nur mit englischer Tonspur erhältlich, was freilich Fans von Rickmans unvergleichlicher Stimme nicht stören wird. Allerdings wurde auch sonst völlig an Extras gespart, dabei gibt es eine interessante Dokumentation "The Making of Mesmer", die man sich zwar bei britsbitsandclips herunter laden kann, aber in furchtbarer Bild- und Tonqualität.

Dark, but also oddly touching

Recensito nel Regno Unito il 8 settembre 2007

Acquisto verificato

This film is something of an oddity. In terms of actual plot, it's fair to say that there isn't much of one, but that doesn't seem to matter. It's the rather dark story of Franz Anton Mesmer, a doctor in 18th century Austria who shocked and angered both the medical profession and polite society with his theories about energy and magnetism.

Alan Rickman, who is always at his best when playing characters who are slightly contradictory and ambiguous, is excellent in the title role. Dennis Potter's screenplay never really comes to any judgement on Mesmer's abilities or character, leaving the audience to make up their own mind. What is clear throughout is that Mesmer doesn't much care what anybody else thinks of him, and that this alone in polite 18th century society was perhaps enough to turn his peers against him. Ironically, the polite society into which Mesmer's unhappy marriage to a vile widow has elevated him (Mesmer's father was a gamekeeper) conceals an unpleasant underbelly of cruelty and abuse, as is made clear by the relationship between Mesmer's blind patient and her hypocritical father, and by the hard-to-watch scenes in which Mesmer's stepson attempts to rape his mentally ill cousin. Franz Anton Mesmer himself is an intriguing blend of innocence and cunning, a man of genuine visionary spirit but whose vision is ultimately flawed, capable of great sensitivity but also of conceit.

The supporting cast are also impressive, although the film does fall into the costume drama trap of extras made up of slightly unconvincing grubby-looking peasants with a range of deformities. There are a couple of scenes which don't quite work for me (hence four stars instead of five), one of which is unfortunately a key scene at the very start of the film. But overall, this is an interesting and, like all Dennis Potter's work, slightly unsettling film with a strong cast and sensitive direction.

"Prepare" to be MESMERized!

Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 4 novembre 2007

Acquisto verificato

I have read other review on this board regarding this movie, and I saw a common theme of person's saying that the film was a bit hard to follow, even thought they liked it as a whole. I did not find the story difficult, but I did do some research prior to watching it. I did some reference work through my university, but also on something as accessible as wikipedia. If you look there, it gives you a lucid, coherent outline of Mesmer and his research, aw well as his methods of practice. If you gain a little background , then this movie flows beautifully!

I found this movie to be amazingly filmed, and the acting, especially by Rickman was superb. I cannot think of another actor who can draw your attention and hold it without even having to speak, and then when he does, there is no other voice like it - silky, melodic, and can touch your very soul. Rickman himself is 'mesmerizing.'

The sets and scenes shot for this film are breathtaking, and I believe that this film will captivate anyone who is fascinated in the rise of reason that was taking place in Europe during the 1600s-1700s. What you begin to realize is that Mesmer had truly discovered the power of magnetism, and its potential healing properties on the body. Sadly, this radicalism of thought was in its infancy, and therefore ultimately led to his undoing in a time of bloodletting. This film helps the viewer to see that despite the Enlightenment, there was still a profoundly medieval consensus of thought running through the scientific and medical worlds. The men who spoke of superstition and foolhardy practices being rooted out of their practice could not let go of antiquated harmful treatments themselves. They called Mesmer a charlatan and a fraud because his form of treatment was so unconventional and "perverse" to them, and yet when you see the forms of treatment that the conventional physicans were using at the time, you see the absurdity of their accusations.

I highly reccommend this film. It is beautiful, it is wonderfully acted, and touching. It is also a profoundly enjoyable film that can be watched again and again. I do reccommend though, that you do a bit of research to acquaint yourself with Mesmer. This will help put the film into perspective. It will also make you realize and appreciate what an amazing job Alan Rickman did in portraying this man!

One of the saddest movies ever +one of the best actors ever

Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 20 agosto 2003

First, to get some things clear: the boy is Mesmer's stepson and the marriage is propably a business arrangement, as hinted by both Mesmer and his wife. As marriages were in those days.
The movie then... Yes, at times Rickman's voice was very hard to hear and the plot seems a bit loose. I admit he's got the most expressive face, eyes, voice and hands in the movie business and for once they were very well portrayed. In fact, the movie seems to rely on them. I was a bit confused, too, what was the point of the movie. Was it a historical piece, romantic story - it even had some comedy, as great tragedies often have. Mesmer seems to fail, although in real life he actually did cure people. And then he said his bit about how much pain there is in the world and how he could not bare not to be able to do anything to relieve it. And there was the point; that's why Dennis Potter, already dying, wrote the script this way. Even the kissing scene, which to many people seems very romantic and sexy, seemed sad to me. As if Mesmer couldn't believe something like that really happens to him. Even the ending made sense, then. This is a man, whose heart is aching to do something good in a world filled with pain and cruelty, selfishness and ignorance, but fails because one man isn't enough. Even the one he cures isn't saved, because the world doesn't understand what he was trying to do, what he was trying to make people see. Dennis Potter's testament, maybe?
Oh yes, Rickman was born to wear cloaks (see Snape and Sheriff of Nottingham) and white ruffles around his throat, Amanda Ooms is lovely and the acting and the sceneries are great. And to remind, why Rickman is so great as a villain, he gets to throw the boy down the stairs. Suddenly a burst of energy and passion, making the character even more complicated, more human - because that's what Rickman does at his best: complete, complicated, deeply human characters.
It's a very different kind of movie and many may not like it, but it's well worth watching. One gets to see an actor like Rickman far too little, and Dennis Potter was an excellent writer, even if this wasn't his best script. I loved it. It was very different from the super hero and cartoon character movies. We need to be reminded of real humanity and the fragility of people this way, because there seems to be very little room for compassion, pity and understanding in today's world.
