“I believe”, Scully…
Telly Paretta is seeing a shrink as therapy for losing her son in a plane crash, only she never had a son but is convinced she had. All the people in her life don’t remember Sam including her husband. When she confronts the alcoholic fathers of another child from the flight they set out to discover the truth and the truth is “out there”.Part X-Files and part Lifetime movie of the week, “The Forgotten” seems to really channel Chris Carter’s hit TV show, look it even has a redhead. The story is interesting and Julianne Moore’s performance is sincere but you can’t help but think that something is missing. The clever twist is good but they could have easily expanded the storyline and made it more “something”.
Good but not great, “The Forgotten” seems to lack its own identity due to the derivative nature of the storyline which needed a bit of assistance from Fox Mulder.
An intriguing mystery the less you know going in the better
Protagonist Telly Paretta has not been able to get over the loss of her eight year old son, Sam, in a plane crash fourteen months previously. Each day she spends hours looking at pictures of him or watching a video of him; her psychiatrist advises her not to but she does anyway. Then one day she finds the photos have gone and the video has been deleted; she confronts her husband but he tells her that he hasn’t done anything not just that he tells her there never were any pictures of her son as he had been still born and all her memories are false; part of a condition. She is convinced that he is lying but everybody else she asks has no knowledge of Sam. Her one hope is Ash Correll, the father of a girl who also died in the crash except he has no memory of any of it either. He lets her spend the night in his flat but calls the police in the morning. Strangely as they are taking her away a pair of NSA agents turn up and take her from the police not what one would expect given what we have seen before. At this point the things she said to Ash get through and he realises that he somehow forgot his daughter. He helps Telly escape and together the two of them determine to find out what happened to their children; it won’t be easy though as powerful forces are determined to stop them.When I watched this film I knew almost nothing about it; just the blurb on the back of the box. I think this served to make the film far more enjoyable that it would have been if I knew much more. Early on I was unsure whether Telly was sane or not and when it became apparent that she probably was sane and that her child had existed I still had no idea what had happened was the cause some sinister agency, science-fiction, supernatural or something else altogether? Inevitably there are some cliché when the truth is discovered but they weren’t enough to spoil my enjoyment of the film as the ultimate resolution isn’t too obvious. Julianne Moore does a great job as Telly, a lesser actress could have made the character to melodramatic. She is ably supported by Dominic West as Ash and Gary Sinise as her psychiatrist amongst others. Overall I’d recommend this but try to avoid spoilers before watching as not knowing the nature of what was happening made the film better for me.
