Some things we learned from watching this movie: ...


1. If your wife tries to kill herself, do not seek counseling. Instead, throw yourself into your work and try to never be home.

2. If all your plants and fish and birds die, do not be curious, and try to spend more time away from your home.

3. It´s totally safe for white women to travel to remote parts of India alone, and even going hiking through a forest.

reply

Why should india be any different than any place else? You always have to be cautious and not do stupid things. But over all as long as you are careful, any place is safe. There are no particular places thas not safe for some.

reply

Actually, a white woman in India is not safe if she's on her own. It's a current situation.

Apparently what most of us perceived as excessively prejudiced and restrictive impositions imposed on places that were colonies of European nations had some justification. The inhibition of behavior in those places has been wearing off in the absence of imposed colonial restrictions.

Why wouldn't it be safe,

That this was one senseless, horribly thought out, one mess of a film. And the husband.....who thought up that lame brain of a character? Just an absolute disaster. Garbage smells better.

reply

Speaking of smelling, no amount of washing (she basically rinses it off?!) could have made that stuffed tiger Downy fresh, given where it had been. Jeez!

5. If your depressed wife, who has recently tried to kill herself, goes on a "secret journey" all by herself, you don't ask her where she's going or how long she'll be gone - you don't care at all.

6. If all nature and animals surrounding your house suddenly die, you don't even notice.

7. When going to a creepy ancient temple by night, don't take a flashlight or cell phone with you, just use matches and candles to explore the place.

9. Be sure to put stuffed animals and paper items in plastic garbage bags before you pour gasoline all over them if you want them to burn

10. If your source your antiques from India more than 2 times a year, you should just move there permanently. The business back in the states will just take care of itself!

11. Little kids on beaches know best about where you should spend the rest of your life.

12. If in a submerged car, keep your nose on the ceiling!

13. Even in death little boys with keep a grip on their stuffed animals.

14. If your piano plays itself, don't fret. In fact, don't even do anything about it. It'll probably just work itself out.

15. Sure, it makes perfect sense to read bedtime stories. To your dead son's ghost. Ghosts are people to, after all.

16. Don't ever be a dog in a horror movie. Especially one with dead kids running around. And knives.

17. You only get one chance at reincarnation. If you come back the wrong way, your soul will turn evil and putrefy!
