The Mixed Theory of mind includes an Identity Theory and a Functionalist Theory—which Lewis must necessarily accept in order to have his theory of pain.

After seeing the movie Son of Saul, which was written and directed by László Nemes, Clara Royer, I found it to portray very moving themes, concepts, and ideas that were present throughout the movie; the movie itself was very metaphorical in terms of its general theme.
