What happens in Three Christs from start to finish, spoilers included, with a timeline of 12 key events. The opening is below; the full summary is a 3-minute read.
Spoilers ahead
Dr. Alan Stone, [Richard Gere], a progressive psychologist who left New York University in 1954 to work directly with patients at the Ypsilanti State Mental Asylum, becomes a central figure in a tense era for mental health care. Stone specializes in schizophrenic patients and is widely seen as a critic of the system, which in the 1950s relied heavily on institutionalization and sedation. Insulin shock therapy and electric shocks were common tools, while true talk therapy remained a marginal practice.
