Sixth Sense Essay
The sixth sense is a thriller that was made in 1999, directed by M Night Shyamalan, and starred Bruce Willis, Haley Joel Osment and Toni Collette. It is about a young boy Cole (Haley Joel Osment) who Communicates with ghosts who don't know they are dead. His mother (Toni Collette) picks up on this and seeks help for him with a child psychologist, Dr. Malcolm Crowe (Bruce Willis).

At the very start of the film we see a sequence with Malcolm and his wife, it shows us an evening with the two of them. During the evening, one of Dr. Crowe's old patients breaks into his house and shoots Malcolm and then himself. As we don't see him die and we see him later and throughout the film we assume he is alive.
Malcolm and Cole become close, despite Cole rejecting Malcolm's help to start with. They work together and find out what Cole needs to do, he realizes that the spirits can't pass on until they have given a message to someone, they can't go because they have unfinished business or things they haven't been able to say to loved ones.
At the very end of the film it goes back to the same scene that we see at the very start of the film with Bruce Willis (Malcolm Crowe) only this time the sequence carries on so we get to see that he actually dies. This adds a huge twist at the end of the film, now knowing that all the way through Malcolm Crowe, Cole's psychologist has actually been a ghost himself.List of thrillers of last 20 years
