Michael, after winning the Pulitzer Prize years ago, is writing his fourth novel but feels he has lost the magic to be able to write a piece of writing that will attract the attention of his publisher and get published. Michael is going through a complex time of separation from his wife and while he tries to find inspiration to write his novel, parallel stories of characters trying to find love, forgiveness, and redemption unfold simultaneously. They are three stories that although very different will have a common point of confluence.

Third Person is a 2013 film starring actors such as Liam Neeson, Mila Kunis, Adrien Brody, Olivia Wilde, James Franco, Moran Atias, Maria Bello, and Kim Basinger. This production is directed by Canadian Paul Haggis, who has been responsible for the screenplay of films such as Crash (2004), Million Dollar Baby (2005), Casino Royale (2006), and Letters from Iwo Jima (2007), Quantum of Solace (2008). Haggins has demonstrated an impeccable ability to weave dramatically charged stories that connect you to each character, and the Third Person is no exception.

About the plot
Michael (Liam Neeson), after separating from his wife, escapes to Paris to try to sort out his life and finish his fourth novel. However, he can't find what to write about, but the arrival of Anna at his hotel (Olivia Wilde, his lover for two years) could become an opportunity for Michael to get his love and professional life back on track.

Monika is very clear about her goal and will do anything to have her daughter with her. Scott will look for a way to help Monika without caring about the consequences of confronting those who are blackmailing this woman.



My impressions and conclusions
Third person is a film that focuses on the drama of three stories that embody many feelings that feedback on each other and sometimes oppose the very intimate desires of each character. This film explores how guilt tries to cope through the construction of alternate realities to deceive the subconscious and evade the terrible truth in the face of traumatic events. Is it a form of survival? Is it a way of living on autopilot? They say that everyone knows the hell they carry inside, but lies can be a balm to alleviate guilt, perhaps a way of not accepting the responsibilities of our actions, but without acceptance of guilt there is no repentance.
Third person will take you through a series of questions about how we would act in the face of extreme circumstances, whether we can keep secrets or confess them no matter how terrible they are, and find peace. Everyone deserves to be themselves.
I highly recommend you watch this movie, I am sure you will identify with many of its characters. I invite you to discover if each character will be able to resolve their conflicts and if Michael will be able to write his novel or abandon everything to start a new life.
Thanks for reading. See you in a future post!
