Movie Review: The Orphanage

Had I paid closer attention to the movie description on Amazon, I wouldn’t have bought this movie. The Orphanage was filmed in Spain, and the actors speak Spanish. I didn’t realize this until I started watching the movie, but decided that if I could sit through Ju-on and its subtitles, I could sit through this.

The Orphanage begins with young Laura (Belén Rueda) playing a game with her friends. The scene ends when the orphanage headmaster goes outside to tell Laura that she has been adopted. Years later, she and her husband, Carlos (Fernando Cayo), return to the old orphanage to live. They plan to reopen it as a home for special needs children.
The Orphanage
Their seven year-old son, Simón (Roger Príncep), has a lot of imaginary playmates. He is also HIV-positive and doesn’t know that he is adopted until an old woman visits the house, using the guise of a social worker. In the meantime, Laura has been hearing strange noises and dealing with her son’s growing insistence that his imaginary playmates are real.

Tension builds between mother and son until it explodes on the day of their open house. Simon vanishes without a trace. Six months later, he is still missing. The police have not been able to help the distraught couple. Finally, Laura decides to contact a medium to help her find her son.

This is where the movie gets really good. A classic battle of skeptic versus believer unfolds between Carlos (who refuses to believe) and Laura (who is looking for any answer at this point). In the end, she stays on in the house to unravel the mystery of her past because she feels that the past is the key to finding her son.

I won’t say any more about the plot. But I will say that this is the most original ghost story I’ve yet to watch. Director, Guillermo Del Toro did an excellent job putting this movie together. While The Orphanage had plenty of dark atmosphere and special effects, he put his focus more on the story that makes you think and feel. Highly recommended.

“I talk with angels,” White says. “I don’t talk to dead people.”

Tera Dianne Tracy

That’s what Ann White of Beaufort, also known as Running Deer, says when people ask her about her psychic ability. She prefers to be called a Cherokee medicine woman, rather than a psychic. Whatever the title, she says that people have come to her when they cross over. One was a woman named Tera Dianne Tracy, who was beaten and stabbed to death while working at a convenience store across the street from her house.

Tracy told White the details of her death, gave a description of her killer, and revealed that a Winnie the Pooh bear had been placed inside her casket. A statue of a horse was placed on top of her grave, due to the fact that she had loved horses. White couldn’t have known any of the personal details of the burial because she lived 30 miles away from Tracy and her family.

White met one of Tracy’s family members by chance when she went to a chiropractor. The family was so impressed with White’s testimony that they asked her to contact the sheriff’s office to help them solve this 8 year-old case. White was able to identify the killer, based on a drawing she had made from Tracy’s description, and urged the authorities to post a nationwide bulletin with his photo.
