The Hypnotist

About This Movie

So, 'The Hypnotist' from 1986 is this curious documentary that dives into the world of hypnotism through the lens of Robert Attila Bellus and his wife, Stella. The interviews are conducted by Jeff Krulik, who had an eye for the quirky side of life. The pacing is a bit slow, but that really lets you soak in the eccentricities of Bellus's character and his unique methods. The atmosphere is almost cozy, with a home video feel that adds to the accessibility. You get a glimpse of the real-life applications of hypnotism, which is intriguing. It’s not flashy or overproduced, just genuine and a tad bizarre, which kind of makes it stand out in the documentary realm.
