Rosario Dawson pretends to hypnotize James McAvoy in Trance

Clip from the Danny Boyle movie Trance, with James McAvoy and Rosario Dawson.

Elizabeth (played by Rosario Dawson) tells Simon (played by James McAvoy) to be silent and starts a tape.

Elizabeth: So I'd like you to close your eyes and imagine you're in an elevator. A wide elevator with velvet walls and thick carpets. And as the doors close, your eyelids become heavier.

Franck (Vincent Cassel) is sitting in a van with the other criminals, listening to the supposed hypnosis session.

While the recording continues, Elizabeth holds up cards to ask Simon certain questions.

"Are you in trouble?"

And as your eyes become heavier and the elevator begins to go down, you realize that this is the elevator of relaxation.

"Are they listening?"

Simon nods.

How many?

Simon holds up four fingers.

Then she shows him a picture of the painting he stole, but forgot where it is now.

I don't want to talk to Simon anymore. I want to talk to the men who are listening.

She holds up the card: "I can help you"
