Love & Mercy

Love & Mercy primarily evokes strong feelings of **Sadness**, **Empathy**, and **Melancholy** as it delves into Brian Wilson's profound mental health struggles, the abuse inflicted by his father, and the subsequent exploitation by Dr. Landy. **Anxiety** is a pervasive emotion, reflecting the audience's concern for Brian's deteriorating state and the oppressive control over him. **Anger** is directed towards the abusive figures in his life. However, the film also offers significant moments of **Love** and **Hope** through Melinda Ledbetter's unwavering support, leading to feelings of **Inspiration** as Brian begins his journey towards recovery. The 'Music' genre contributes to **Nostalgia** for The Beach Boys' iconic sound and **Awe** for Brian's extraordinary musical genius.
