"Dissociative Identity Disorder" is not new in film art creation. The professional term is DID (Dissociative Identity Disorder), which means that there are at least two or more different personalities in a person.
These different identities will alternately control the person's thinking. Sometimes the identities know each other's existence, sometimes they can't.
The most famous movie should be David Fincher's "Fight Club", as is Hitchcock's "Cry". The protagonist has two different identities in his body. Later the artists were dissatisfied. The protagonist of "Fatal ID" in 2003 has 11 different personalities, including men, women, old people, children, murderers, police officers.
According to psychological explanations, most individuals with this condition have suffered considerable abuse when they were young.
When something happens around the child that he (she) cannot bear, they will automatically develop an "other" identity that is stronger than their original self. Over time, different personalities gradually become independent and will begin to take over the body alternately. These different personalities have different names and personality characteristics, and even their gender, behavior habits, hobbies, and physical illnesses are different.
"Split" was released soon in the United States, IMDB scored 7.5, starring our "One Beauty" James McAvoy.
First of all, I want to say that this may be the most exciting performance in "Yimei" acting career. James McAvoy may be nervous to play this role well. It is not easy to adjust the subtle expressions of the face, let alone imitate the voice and behavior of different identities.
"Split" is not a horror movie, so to speak of horror, it is not too scary. The film begins with the kidnapping of three young girls by "Yimei". At first glance, the film should be a typical "kidnapping-imprisonment-injury-escape" trend. But in fact, it is completely different from what we thought.
The three kidnapped girls thought that the hero was going to assault them. Generally speaking, this kind of well-mannered young man with glasses is likely to have a perverted fanaticism for sex. However, the male protagonist did not.
The actor just did some incredible things, such as wanting the girl to dance with him, such as taking a bunch of detergent and letting them clean the bathroom. What makes them even more inexplicable is that the male protagonist changed into a woman's clothes and started talking to himself.
Before he recovered, the actor immediately changed into bright yellow sportswear and sat at the door of the cell to chat with them. The IQ of one of the girls is online. She asked the sporty kidnapper: "How old are you?" Our "Yimei" replied innocently: "9 years old~"
Girls: "???"
Nevertheless, the girls at best think that the male protagonist is a unique pervert. But the director quickly answered the audience's doubts. He asked the actor to change into the painter's clothes and visit his psychologist. The psychiatrist told everyone in a few words that the actor is a patient suffering from "dissociative identification disorder". He has about 23 different personalities, and the dominant personality should be the artist who is seeing a doctor.
So what happened to the actor's 23 personalities in private? The kidnapping and dominant man is obviously the man with glasses. What exactly did he want to achieve when he kidnapped these three girls?
The ending of this film is quite surprising. It belongs to the kind of ending where you will be slapped in the face by the director no matter how you guess it. There is no praise or derogation, it is really simple and surprising. Do you think you are watching a psychoanalytic thriller? Ha ha.
Remind everyone, there is a "personality switch" in the later part of the film, and the 23 personalities in the protagonist basically have the opportunity to show their faces. And you have to manually praise James McAvoy's acting skills. But objectively speaking, although the shell of the film is exquisite, the content is a bit simpler. If there is no "one beauty" acting, "Split" should be a very mediocre work of the same type of film.
