I watched a Drama TV yesterday which has caught my interest especially in the area of studying human behaviours. The Drama TV is a mini series of "Lie To Me".
About "Lie To Me"
It is produced by FOX Broadcasting Company with the theme: The Truth Is
Written All Over Our Faces. This drama is about Dr. Cal Lightman, the world's
leading deception expert who studies facial expressions and involuntary body
language to discover not only if someone is lying but why. When someone shrugs
ones shoulder, rotates a hand, or raises the lower lip, Lightman knows he's
lying.
Other characters in this drama include Dr. Gillian Foster, Ria Torres, and
Eli Loker. These people help federal law enforcement, government agencies, and
local police with their most difficult cases. More information at http://www.fox.com/lietome .
You may not find related researches or quotations or statistical figures discussing the studies made by Dr. Lightman and his team at the website. But through the drama, you will discover on how much we can discover on people's gesture, expressions and body language when conveying speeches or responses during interrogations. It is just INTERESTING.
On the website also you may find that they are revealing some of public videos potraying the US Political Figures as a sample to elaborate the facial meanings they discovered.
Perhaps they did the studies and they apply in their job scopes but it is still insufficient for us to deduct the facts they are conveying through the drama. They take the opinions on them openly as there is also a saying that "Dr., Sometimes you made mistakes too"... Well, perhaps.
But still, it is a GOOD Drama TV not to be missed.
