I refer to those obscure and exceptional phenomena reported at all times throughout human history, which the «psychical - researchers,» with Mr. Frederic Myers at their head, are doing so much to rehabilitate; 7 such phenomena, namely, as religious conversions, providential leadings in answer to prayer, instantaneous healings, premonitions, apparitions at time of death,
clairvoyant visions or impressions, and the whole range of mediumistic capacities, to
say nothing of still more exceptional and incomprehensible things.
The most ironic aspect to this movie is that even when Isabelle is acting as her own worst enemy —
say, allowing herself to be talked down from her latest affair with a gentle gallery owner (Alex Descas) by a busybody
clairvoyant (Gerard Depardieu!)
