"Smile" is a 2022 American psychological supernatural horror film written and directed by Parker Finn, based on his 2020 short film "Laura Hasnt Slept"). The film stars Sosie Bacon as a therapist named Rose Cotter, who witnesses the bizarre suicide of a patient and goes through increasingly disturbing and daunting experiences, leading her to believe what she is experiencing is supernatural). The film follows many of the typical beats of a supernatural horror-mystery, escalating from a quick Google search to a full-blown haunting. The horror elements are bloody and disturbing to match the dark themes, and the films greatest asset is its relentless, oppressive grimness. The color palette, in shades of lavender, pink, teal, and gray, is capably chosen and very of the moment. The film has received mixed reviews, with some critics praising the films unsettling exploration of trauma and the standout performance of Sosie Bacon, while others criticize the film for not being as fresh a concept as it might seem and for leaning too heavily on formulaic mystery plotting and horror themes lifted from popular hits like "The Ring" and "It Follows". The films official trailer was released on June 22, 2022.
