Leave your thoughts about Titicut Follies.
| Film ThreatPhil HallTime has not diminished its emotional impact. |
| AV ClubA.A. DowdTiticut is primarily just shocking; it's an angry polemic about the state of the mental health care system, not a multifaceted portrait of an environment. |
| PatheosEve TushnetI was also struck by the way Wiseman weaves singing and music throughout the movie: the traditions of the inmates and staff, and the way they beautify an environment which would seem to resist any attempt at beauty. |
| VoxAlissa WilkinsonA sort of harrowing tragicomedy, with images of force-feeding, bullying, strip-searching, and the staff's indifference to inmates, all culminating in an institution-wide talent show called the Titicut Follies. |
| New York TimesWalter GoodmanThe stage, where odd behavior reigns, blurs the lines of sanity and confers an hour of equality. |
| The RingerLindsay ZoladzTiticut Follies is incredibly difficult to watch but it is a film of potent, declarative power. |
| ColeSmithey.comCole Smithey[VIDEO ESSAY] Made during an era when mental hospitals dotted America's map like flies on manure, "Titicut Follies" presents an invaluable time capsule. |
| User ReviewThelma VSubject matter is terrible but everyone should see how conditions were or can be in mental facilities. Not a feel good documentary but one to make you think. |
| User ReviewDavid SIt is an amazing documentary about dark days in Psychiatry. As I said to my colleagues - there is no way such thing could be happening nowadays! |
| User ReviewLauri Anssi MI saw portions of this intensely harrowing documentary at film school and only recently watched it in its entirety thanks to google video. To say this film is disturbing is not even scratching the surface. The film centres on a mental instiution in Massachusetts in the mid-60s and was (and still is in some states) banned in America for its frankness and imagery. We get to see the inmates beaten, goaded, insulted, stripped and, in one particularly hideous moment, force fed. This is not a film to be enjoyed by any means. That said, if you want to see a documentarian in his element and if you want to see the unpolished grime of reality then this is a must see. |
