Dan Gallagher played by Michael Douglas wants to forget about his affair he had with Alex Forrest  (Glen Close), he tries to ignore he calls, he even changes his number however Alex is  so naive that she becomes friends with his wife and therefore gets the number. After continuous calls Dan breaks into Alex's flat to find something. 
The characters involved where Dan Gallagher (Michael Douglas),Alex Forrest (Glen Close) and Beth Gallagher (Anne Archer) the wife of Dan she happens to know nothing of the affair but she somehow suffers from the actions of Alex. The environments used were Alex's flat, car park and the house of Dan and Beth Gallagher.

One of the most significant's moments when Dan is driving and listening to Alex's cassette, this shows that she  has spent time on making the cassette which shows she's obviously obsessed with him. The cassette was playing for awhile and Dan was listening to it this shows his interested in what she says. 

      Psychological Thrillers  

A thriller is a film that is made to keep the audience in suspense, sensational action and also it keeps the audience on the edge. Thriller is a large genre because it overlaps with other     genres for example Inception is action, adventure, mystery and a  thriller. A thriller can not be on its own it has to be combined with other genres.Thrillers have their own characteristics such as plot twists, not knowing what's going to happen. The main purpose of thrillers is to with the audiences brain, they put the audience on the edge at times because of the suspense. The audience have to go back to the start to rethink the plot so that they know what's happening. In a film such as 'Exam', the  characters had to figure out the question to answer the question, this made the audience try to figure out the question for themselves however they couldn't until the end of the film. Some thrillers are very complex to understand, if you miss part of the film you may not understand the whole plot of the film, some thrillers are made for a wider audience that isn't as complex.

I will watch more thrillers to get used to their characteristics and features this will give me more knowledge about thrillers.
