This episode, we continue our theme of “I Can’t Remember.”  Our pick, “The Snake Pit,” a very Deep Track from 1948 starring Olivia de Havilland, is about a woman who wakes up in a mental institution, with no initial memory of how she ended up there. 

We also dive into Western Civilization’s approaches to mental illness throughout history and discuss how this film exposed the less than ideal state of the mental health industry at the time. 

So, take some time to improve your well-being by joining us; we have been told we are very therapeutic.
