John: A depressed and autistic man who grew up under the influence of a strong mother.
Early Emma: John's active female role.
Emma in the middle and late period: a combination of John and his mother's personalities, both male and female.
Children with relevant experience know that in the combination of a strong mother and a weak son, the son hates his mother but has a morbid attachment.
So, when John's mother died, he started acting as a mother to take care of himself.
Emma was named after John.
1. In the first scene of the film, before 8:30, Emma prepares the housework, cleans up the house, has breakfast, carefully picks up the newspaper, and closes the curtains for fear of being seen. After 8:30, I took off Emma's clothes and turned into John, and enjoyed everything Emma had arranged. When I got home, I felt very happy to see the note that Emma left me. From these details, it can be seen that John is not a spirit. Splitting Emma, at least not until the train crashes into the yard, is subjectively playing the role of mother (Emma) and enjoying it to a certain extent. You can call him psychopath, but not schizophrenia.
2. The train appeared, Emma was contacted by people outside John's world, and in the communication with outsiders (Susan Sarandon's incitement to women), Emma's personality began to awaken, the beginning of personality split, John gradually Can't control nor know Emma's behavior.
3. At this time, the personalities of John and Emma are still independent of each other, and each other does not know what the other has done.
4. Emma's personality has existed for longer and longer. When he was awake, John became more and more afraid of what Emma did, and even more afraid that Emma would completely replace his personality. Uncontrollably becomes Emma.
5. In the film, John and the police said that he met Emma on the day his mother died. John was actually covering up the fact that he initially dressed up as Emma subjectively, for fear that people would find out that he was perverted, which does not really mean On the day his mother died, John was schizophrenic into John and Emma.
6. John is determined to escape and find a hotel. But in the end, Emma's personality emerged.
7. At this point John and Emma's personalities merge, but Emma is dominant. Emma sat in John's seat to eat breakfast, opened the curtains at home not afraid of seeing people, used John's voice to deceive Ellen Page, dressed as John to go to work in the bank, entered through the main door, dared to talk back to the supervisor, sat in John In the office location, everything feels fresh.
8. Emma shaved her eyebrows, made herself more feminine, and plotted the illusion of John's death. John hardly exists by this point, Emma is John.
9. The perverted Emma (John's mother's personality) wants to live with the child, from John's mistake, but the moment John wakes up when he sees the photo.
10. At the end of the film, Emma's personality is dominated by the awakened John, who persuades Peggy to leave. Emma is sitting by the window, just like in the first scene, but isn't she the same now as she was before?
John's Bank job may have been found by his mother through the back door when he was alive. Oops…
