At the beginning of the movie, the id slowly opened his eyes on the subway, implying the awakening of the id, the security did not recognize him, the employee card could not be used, and later he could not enter the company dance, and he could not be found in the system. The id has never been involved in the workplace before, he was only responsible for being alone, facing his mother (the formation of a weak id has a lot to do with the harshness and harshness of his mother since childhood), and stealing the heroine's sketches at night (so the heroine The security guard at the apartment recognized him), the id mostly shows up when alone, so the id feels lonely and unsociable. The male protagonist tried to use his id to hook up with his sweetheart. The first acquaintance was fine, but when the relationship needed to be further deepened on the first date, the unsociable id was shrunk. In desperation, the male protagonist could only use his superego to subdue the girl. Lord, however, the superego is used to deal with colleagues and people in society. If you use him to deal with your sweetheart, the male protagonist feels despised and guilty, so hatred for the superego arises. The harmonious relationship between the two personalities that originally helped each other was Destruction. Gradually, the superego intervened more and more in the male protagonist's private life, and began to promiscuous. When he began to break through the bottom line of the id, the contradiction between the two personalities deepened, and finally reached the point of incompatibility.
In the end, the death of the male protagonist's mother became a turning point in the relationship between the two personalities, because it was his mother that led to the formation of the male protagonist's cowardly character and split personality. The death of the mother liberated the male protagonist psychologically, as if removing his heart. The dark clouds of the male protagonist become brave.
The id punches the superego, and the id himself bleeds. Here, the director made it clear to the audience that these are two personalities, not the two people with the same appearance as introduced on the surface of the film.
In the end, in order to eliminate the false shell of the superego, so that he can use his true self to get close to his sweetheart, the male protagonist chose to commit suicide. Because the id is the core of the male protagonist's system, and the superego is just a shell on the outside. Under the physical effect of a severe head impact, only the superego can dissipate. But I survived and started a happy life with the heroine.
