Your favorite movie 'forgotten' through hypnosis to experience it again: at Pathé it is possible. 'Did I forget pieces or did I convince myself of that?'},

In a cinema in The Hague, visitors undergo hypnosis to forget their favorite films and experience them anew. The event, called Pathé Rewind, involves 30 participants selected from over 1,200 applicants. Experts express skepticism about the effectiveness of hypnosis for film amnesia, noting that while hypnotic amnesia can occur, memories of previously watched films remain in the brain. Participants report mixed experiences, with some feeling deeply hypnotized while others remain skeptical. Despite the doubts, some attendees claim to have genuinely forgotten details of the films, raising questions about the nature of memory and hypnosis. Experts caution against using hypnosis for entertainment purposes, emphasizing its therapeutic potential instead.
