My Review:

In Danny Boyle’s Trance, James McAvoy plays Simon, an art auctioneer who is seriously injured while trying to prevent one of his prize paintings from being stolen.  But right away we question Simon’s innocence, and motives. He can’t remember, or can he?  Danny  Boyle sets up the plot so that we never really know what is truth and what is suggestion.  Rosario Dawson comes in as a skilled psychotherapist who uses hypnotherapy to help Simon recover his memory.  And they become personally involved – or do they?  It’s a tangled web of deception and misdirection that keeps us guessing.  Fast paced, this movie moves quickly and is full of twists and turns.
