about the mother image.
Pay attention to the comparison between the image of the mother in Psycho and the image of the mother in this show. The former has always controlled the son, and the son also accepted this control, which eventually led to the killing of the mother and the split personality. One personality is himself, the other personality is mother, and the two personalities switch and control themselves. The latter's mother was afraid of being abandoned, and kept comparing her son to her husband, trying to interfere with her son's behavior, control him, and be by his side, so that she would feel safe. But fortunately, the son does not accept this kind of control. In the play, the mother says, "He always does what he really wants to do." Her control and possession have not been realized. Therefore, the male protagonist of this show is rational, mature, responsible, and very gentleman. During the crisis, his mother was too scared and angry with him. He did not argue with his mother, but poured a cup of coffee to calm her mother down. Rather than being possessive, the mother in this movie is too insecure.
