These days I watched a horror movie named Get Out. One white girl invited her black photographer boyfriend to her hometown to see her parents. Before went there the boy was a little nervous because of her nation. The girl said her parents wouldnā€™t mind it and they went there. The girlā€™s parents looked very gentle and they treated him well. The boy noticed there were two black persons there, a young woman and a young man. They both looked wired, and the young woman dressed like a maid and the young man dressed like a militia. At night the boy couldnā€™t sleep then he went out to smoke. Through windows he saw the black woman touch her neck and seemed admire herself. While he got out his smoke the black man ran by him quickly like a missile. Then he went back to the room and met her girlfriendā€™s mother. She was a (alienist)and she was good at (hypnosis). Next morning the boy woke up by a nightmare, in the dream he plummeted into dark. Then he realized maybe his girlfriendā€™s mother (hypnotized) him, and he told his friend when he thought about smoking he felt disgusting, so her mother cured his smoking, and thatā€™s not bad. But the next thing was horrible and more aggressive.
