Secret Window Secret Window is a psychological thriller released in 2004 and adapted from a Stephen King novel, Secret Window, Secret Garden. It stars Johnny Depp as Mort Rainey, a Successful mystery source who is suffering from a serious case of writers mob primarily caused by an unfortunate divorce from his wife Amy.Whom he caught duplicity with her new boyfriend Ted Milner. Mort retreats to a lakeside cabin trying to elaboration a novel despite his lack of ambition and growing bile for his wife. Morts solitary life in the woods is disturbed when a mysterious man named John blastoff faces on his doorstep acc use him of plagiarism by claiming that Mort has word-for-word had stolen a story he had written years before, and published it in the Ellery Queen Street Magazine. The identical stories were Morts Secret Window and shafts Sowing temper.Shooter demands to Mort, Fix it. devote it Right in a southern accent and proposed to re arrive at the cease of the story. The intruder Sends increasingly persuasive signals that he means business, branch-class honours degree putting a screwdriver th or so Morts Dog, then burning tweak the New York home where Amy lives with her new partner before progressing to brutal murder. The movie ends when Mort reallyizes that Shooter is only a figment of his imagination, reveals this to his wife, and later kills her and her fan with a shovel and buries them in a garden where he later plants a crop of feed.By nature writers are quirky people. While they may pay off attention to the mundane details of life in a harrowing manner, they are often unaw are of their own behavior. While in the seeking of a story they may pace around as the rough idea of pages come to them, or sit for hours staring at the silver screen thinking of the next precise word. They have a tendency to bite constantly rather than break for a meal and to remain in the same dirty clothes rather than break for a shower. I know this behavior because as a writer Ive through all of it at some point or another.Thats the send-off part of the psychological thriller Secret Window that made me sits up and takes reveal a writer named Mort Rainey. In the word-painting Secret Window, tell by David Koepp, the theme of the double is used to represent the protagonists dark side. This was realized through the portrayal of Shooter as Stalker and the use of two different benignants of hats, Morts depression from the divorce, and the remnant in Morts story Secret Window. Rooney claimed that the story is a chronicle of a man becoming steadily disturbed, engaged in a bick ering dialogue with himself and increasingly ru take by the demons in his head.Morts emotional trauma from the divorce robbed him off his inspiration and put him in a state of worst writers block. His negative feelings formed an evil-like alter-ego, in the person of Shooter, which overshadowed his real persona. Shooter was part of himself as displayed by his behaviors in the movie. First, Shooter depended to appear at bad dates, to know everything about Morts life and to make his quest for the magazine harder. Shooter accused that Mort copied a story he has written a few years back and demanded that Mort fixed it. Mort promised to suck up a copy of the magazine where the story was published to know his innocence.However, Shooter was a violent, impatient man, stalking Mort and making increasingly worse things croak as the magazine failed to arrive. Mort eventually located the magazine that would have proved he published Secret Window before Shooter wrote Sowing Season but the st ory had been cut out. Second, in that respect were two hats used in the film. One was Morts Knit hat and the other was Shooters tall brimmed hat. The hat represented two different personas. Whenever Mort got up from his put of depression to do something he put on his going-out knit hat.Shooters hat was kept at a distance at first but began to close in on Mort as the story progressed. When he actually placed the hat on his own head, the dark privileged bleedings of his soul were revealed. The use of Shooter also demonstrated the steep cost of marital infidelity and the kind of evil that can be unleashed when one person chooses to happen his sinful desires. It presented the aftermath of divorce and the kind of nightmare that it brings. Morts fascination with unending naps and liquors, as well as his tendency to walk around in his wifes tattered bathrobe and sport a weird hairdo revealed longing for his wife.Also, Morts work Secret Window which Shooter claimed as plagiarized nar rated the engender of a man who is betrayed by his wife, and decides to kill her and bury her in her be baskd garden. When Mort eventually realized that Shooter was only a fabrication of his imagination brought so vividly to life through undetected dissociative identity deflect to commit acts that Mort himself felt he could not commit, his concerned ex-wife tried to inspection and repair him out but Mort was already overpowered by Shooter. He killed his wife and lover with a shovel and buried them in a garden where he later planted with corn.The movies ending was highlighted with Morts promissory note The Only thing that matters is the endingand this ones perfect. The ratiocination showed that the evil has won. The local sheriff told Mort that he knew about the murder and as currently as the bodies were found, Mort would pay for the crime. Mort nonchalantly ignored the threat because he knew that the ending of his story would be an impeccable culmination. His decision to plan t, grow and consume corn from the garden where his ex-wife and her lover were buried meant that he was actually destroying all the designate needed to implicate him with the crime.In my opinion, Depp is definitely the highlight of the movie, which is good since hes the character the movie revolves around. In interacting with his ex-wife (Maria Bello) we can see the pain and the love he still holds for her. Raineys spats with her boyfriend Ted (Timothy Hutton) show his anger. Yet no(prenominal) of that holds a candle to his conversations with himself. Rainey spends at least a third of the film alone, but we never feel that hes isolated. Out-of-nowhere quips and commentary about the situations Rainey finds himself in provide real depth to Rainey as a essay writer.That is where the real genius of Depps work on this character comes from. I think the director David Koepp does an excellent job of bringing Secret Window to the screen. On the writing side he has taken a compendious stor y by Stephen King and created a strong and suspenseful plot, highlighted by complete and memorable characters as a solid base for his actors to work with. On the directorial side, he understands how a psychological thriller should work and makes his movie follow those rules. The movie builds just as a story of this type should and the audience is never ahead of the movie.But Perhaps, I think that the biggest problem with the movie is Turturros smutty turn as Mississippi hick John Shooter. There is secret code menacing or threatening about this guy, even after he starts taking revenge on Rainey. He is simply annoying. The scenes between Shooter and Rainey are excruciating because the novelist is so obviously unimpressed by the threats that there is no tension built between the two. The rest of the cast, including Charles S. Dutton, as a private investigator, and Timothy Hutton as Amys lover, are completely wasted and seem to be just going through the motions of this flat thriller.T he biggest problem, however, is that because there is no menace or tension built up throughout the picture, the ending, for all its obviousness, seems rather abrupt and wholly unmotivated and without cause. All in all, this movie is a great movie to watch and is sure to have the audiences at the edge of their seats. Theres always something going on in the movie which will have the audience glued at their screens. The characterization was a creation that aspired to arouse psychological enquiry as well as portray the dilemma within human nature which is the competitiveness between good and evil.The plot of the movie was a subtle move around from the lead characters emotional and psychological stresses caused by the two most common traumas in human experience infidelity and betrayal. Morts hatred towards his wifes cheating consumed his creativity and left him in a state of severe incapability to even come up with a single line for a story. These negative emotional factors brought i nto life a dark alter-ego Shooter, who became his companion in a sinister of events that led him to realizing that his stalker was actually a fiction of his mind.Koepps movie was ministrant in portraying that a persons self can actually be his greatest enemy. As humans experience life and its varying degrees of complexities and stresses, a person has to deal with permit go off the past and moving on with the present to have a renewed view of the future. It is narration of how a person writes his ad hominem story by making important decisions. Mort had a hard time doing this. The book of his life started with chaos and he ended it by choosing evil, which was essentially more chaotic. Hence, this movie is sure to have the audience interested and I personally enjoyed watching this movie.
