1. Malcom Crowe in The Sixth Sense
The Sixth Sense is the 1999 M. Night Shyamalan film about Cole Sear a deeply troubled boy who can see dead people. Child psychologist, Malcom Crowe, played by Bruce Willis sets out to help him. Again we have another case of doctor with issues of his own. Malcom is tormented by an incident with a former patient who infiltrated his home, assaulted Malcom and then killed himself. Malcom is reminded of this patient when he sets out to treat Cole, he worries that he will once again fail a patient. The poor boy suffers from acute anxiety, he mumbles things in Latin and he sees walking corpses everywhere but slowly Malcom gets closer to the boy and he establishes a productive relationship. So why is he a bad therapist? Well... (MASSIVE SPOILER ALERT BUT REALLY, YOU SHOULD HAVE SEEN THIS MOVIE BY NOW) Malcom Crowe is dead. Hes a ghost. Thats sort of unhelpful.
