Agnes, an abused woman who recently escaped her ex-husband Goss from prison, moves into a rundown motel in Oklahoma and works as a waitress. Her coworker R.C., who is lesbian, introduces Agnes to Peter, a mysterious drifter with paranoid tendencies. They begin a tentative romance while Agnes tries to evade her abusive past. As their relationship deepens, Peter's paranoia intensifies, fueled by conspiracy theories about a government mind-control project involving bugs transmitted via the phone. Agnes initially dismisses his delusions but soon starts experiencing strange occurrences herself, such as feeling insects crawling under her skin. The situation spirals into a claustrophobic nightmare as their reality becomes increasingly blurred between truth and paranoia.
Zusammenfassung
Der folgende Text ist nur auf Englisch verfügbar.
Bug is a psychological thriller directed by William Friedkin, adapted from Pulitzer-winning playwright Tracy Letts' own stage play of the same name. The film is a two-hander starring Michael Shannon as Peter, a former military man turned drifter plagued by paranoid delusions, and Ashley Judd as Agnes, a lonely waitress with a troubled past. The story unfolds in an isolated Oklahoma motel room, creating a claustrophobic atmosphere that mirrors the characters' increasing psychological isolation. The film explores themes of abuse, mental illness, paranoia, and the power of suggestion, as Agnes becomes drawn into Peter's delusions despite her initial skepticism.
