The Words

The Words, a layered drama with mystery and romance elements, primarily elicits strong feelings of Sadness and Melancholy due to the protagonist's moral dilemma of plagiarism and the poignant backstory of the original author. Love is a central emotion, reflecting the romantic relationships and the film's thematic exploration of life's fundamental values. Empathy is deeply felt for both Rory's internal struggle with Guilt and the original author's tragic fate. The mystery aspect fuels Curiosity about the manuscript's origins and the unfolding consequences, leading to significant Anxiety and Anticipation as Rory's secret threatens to unravel. While initial moments of Joy and Happiness accompany Rory's success, they are ultimately overshadowed by the profound emotional weight of his deception.
