Freud’s theory is really very useful. I made some diagnosis for Nina halfway through seeing it, mainly starting from psychoanalysis. Nina’s cause is nothing more than two points: sexual depression and early experience, which is the influence of childhood situations. Her mother must have had a child accidentally, so she ended her stage career and projected her wish on her daughter. Not only did she hope that her daughter would realize her stage ideals, but also that her daughter would not repeat her mistakes, so she was right. The daughter’s private life is also strict. We see that Nina has almost no life except dancing, so the childhood situation can also be summarized into Nina’s sexual repression. According to Freud's theory of personality formation, in Nina's personality formation, both the ego and the superego have been suppressing the id. That is, Toma and Lily are telling her that she is too restrained, she is not qualified for the black swan, she needs to be released. However, when Nina's idol desire violated the superego principle, the ego issued a warning, so that an unacceptable conflict appeared in her personality, which led to her illusion. In fact, Nina's problem occurred long before she got the role of swan queen. Sexual depression has always been there, and getting this role is more like a source of stimulation. She must use dance to fill the vacancies in her life, so much that she cares so much about the swan queen, and cares so desperately. Sexual depression does not only refer to primitive sexual behaviors, but also internal drive and primitive desire, which is the depression of the self. From the very beginning, Toma asked her to release this part of energy, kiss her strongly, ask her to touch and feel her body, and then show her the part of seduction (BTW, the man of the goddess Bellucci is really attractive, it’s me. He fell directly...), but Nina was always in a free state. (Natalie plays well in this part) Nina needs to solve her original needs. DIY is completely possible. It is completely OK for fantasy to be of the same sex, but Nina’s superego has never been able to face the demands of the self, even A sense of guilt and shame arose. Her self-defense mechanism puts the impulses and thoughts that threaten the self into the subconscious. I think the "self in the mirror" that appears repeatedly in the film is exactly the projections of Nina's subconscious. Her self-harm and delusion of being murdered-she has always wrapped herself in the fear that everyone wants to rob her of her role. In fact, it is herself who refuses to let go. The explosion of subconscious conflicts eventually led to Nina's collapse. Freud is a deadly pervert. He always likes to pull everything into sexual drive. What's depressing is that he is always right. You need to see a doctor if you are sick. If Nina asks a psychiatrist in time for the first few phantoms, a few courses of treatment can relieve her condition. Therefore, children’s shoes, if there are frequent hallucinations like real scenes and accompanied by physical self-harm, please seek medical advice in time.
