Nightmare Alley is an investigation into the human subconscious, one of the best to grace the big screen in recent years. Guillermo Del Toro's story follows Stan (Bradley Cooper) as he journeys from the bottom to the top — and then to the bottom once more. Throughout this long and fascinating journey, there is only one scene where we see Stan truly happy: when he accepts becoming a geek and the endless humiliation that comes with it. In this analysis, I explore how Stan's fateful decision is set-up and why it is a warning to confront your deepest insecurities.
