Episode 032: How Stalking and Insurance Scams Drive a Person Insane—Unsane (2018)
Join Alex in a solo episode as he discusses the psychological concepts in a sleeper indie thriller directed by Steven Soderbergh, Unsane (2018). It stars Claire Foy as a woman suffering from Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) from a stalker, but everyone at the health clinic thinks she’s delusional, because who stalks these days, amirite? Anyway, it’s a cautionary tale about believing women and insurance scams! The idea for covering this film came from a General Psychology class Watch Party on Alex’s Twitch.tv channel (https://twitch.tv/cogpsychprof).
