The Awakening is one of those films where one viewing is not enough, and two is too many, as the vast plotholes will become more obvious. The story is classic - sad woman ghostbuster is summoned to de-haunt a boarding school, where one of the boys has topped himself, after being scared witless by the resident ghost. There is lots of tension, supernatural and sexual enough to keep interest. Having watched this once, I am looking forward to watching with the directors commentary, maybe that will answer the big question of the ending, is she or isn't she?
