Plot.....:
"Asylum" (1972) follows some who sought refuge from a world where
cellblocks, crude tranquilizers, even electroshock and lobotomies were
still considered normal by too many mental health institutions.
Though these terrible practices inside the clinics and the violence
outside (the war in Vietnam, etc.) is never specifically shown, one
can certainly sense that many in the film felt that the Establishment
they left behind inside and outside the clinics had become an asylum
run by lunatics.
So these patients and workers took refuge in a pioneering commune where
"peace" was not just a slogan but a daily practice that was certainly
tested to its limit. "Asylum" records filmmaker Peter Robinson and his
small crew's stay in radical psychiatrist R. D. Laing's controversial
Archway Community. Laing's conviction that schizophrenics can only heal
their shattered "self" where they're free, responsible for their actions,
and dialogue with therapists who have no key that any inmate does not
also have. "I think it's possible to get lost here," offers one uneasy
medical volunteer who feels the commune spiraling into a tribal cult.
The inmate David rises to power, spouting unending and increasingly
menacing discourse; illogical/logic that would perhaps be perfectly
sane "Through the Looking Glass".
"What is sane?" is often thrown into question as we meet the therapists
who have interned themselves there to escape a "society of terror",
and the oppressive yet successful parents of an young resident they
have tried to "cure" by hiring a prostitute lest he eventually turn
"you know, [...]".
Hailed as "beautifully done" by The Village Voice at the time of its
1972 release, Asylum has since become "a model of cinema veritΘ."
(The New York Times). It makes a wonderful companion to "One Flew Over
a Cuckoos Nest", and (small independents like) Lars Von Trier's "The
Idiots" and Ingmar Bergman's "Through a Glass Darkly". For a sense of
the world and war swirling outside the asylum, I also recommend the
documentary "Hearts and Minds" and "The Weather Underground" to re-visit
a time (not unlike the one we live in now) where violence and insanity
in the Established Order ruled the madhouse.
