Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

Rented this one the other night. It wasn't that bad. Starring Demi Moore as a woman who leads a double life. She is in one life in N.Y. as a writer with little to no romance and no kids. She then dreams of another life in Paris with a romantic background, kids, nice landscape, etc. That would be the life that I'd like to have! She has a psychologist in both lives and the both tell her that the other people aren't real and that's she dreaming it all up! Demi is definitely in a good role here as she tries to lead that double life wherever that may be. I would suggest if you like a movie with double roles, then don't miss this one!

SPOILERS - This is a Demi Moore film with a fine supporting cast. Her dilema is this, she has two very real existences, one in New York as a high-powered professional, the other in France as a widow with two children. However, one of them is a dream and she doesn't know which. Neither do we. When she sleeps in one existence, she is awake in the other. In both she has a psychiatrist who assures her the "other" existence is a dream, and in each she has a new beau who is falling in love with her. In the end we find that the French existence is really a dream, taking her back to her childhood there. She had never reconciled the premature death of her mother, and in her dream she became the mother, the two children were her at different ages. A fine, entertaining, thought-provoking film. Most of the critics, like Ebert, got this one wrong. It is better than they said it was, probably because they decided early into the film that it wasn't good.

POSSIBLE SPOILERS HEREIN.Who are we? What are we? Where do we come from? Where are we going? This movie deals with some, if not all, of the above questions.The main character portrayed by Demi Moore is classified by medical science as "multiple personality disordered". Yet, from a spiritual/philosophical/mystical/metaphysical/quantum mechanics physics viewpoint, she is classified as multidimensional in existence or inter-dimensional in existence. Spiritual philosophical reference: "In my Father's house there are many mansions".This movie does an excellent job of accurately illustrating the overlap of one or more universes onto and into another or others and/or the overlap of one or more consciousnesses onto and into another or others.The movie is classified as "fiction with a purpose" - it teaches about alternate realities/existences/universes/worlds/dimensions. It is a "truth movie" or "teaching movie"

The film gives us some pretty neat ideas to think about, where does reality end? The first movie I've seen on the subject and it was worth it.Some people will call Passion of Mind slow, but really their suffering from being over Hollywood-ised and don't realize the have a very small attention span. The term "thriller" is too harsh for this movie in my opinion. The movie isn't action filled, but it doesn't need to be. The story is enough to keep the audience interested or at least the only audience that will truly appreciate it. Even though this movie didn't get much attention, this was a smart movie for Demi Moore. It shows she isn't a Hollywood vehicle that will just take anything, this is a cleverly crafted story. I respect her greatly for doing this movie. Also, the rest of the cast is great. The France scenes have been shot beautifully, really good work here. Also, the film ends greatly. The perfect ending for this movie, I was worried as I watched the movie that maybe the ending would be too simple, but it worked out fine. See it.
