The three faces of Eve. - Keikilani - 12-13-2012
This film was made in 1957.
Directed by- Nunnally Johnson.
Staring: Joanne Woodward, David Wayne, Lee J. Cobb, and Edwin Jerome.
I watched this film in Psychology today, and this is one of the best black and white movies I've seen in a very long time.This is a extremely fascinating case.
This film was based on the true story of Eve White.
The film reenacts the case of Mrs. White. She goes to a psychiatrist because she has been having terrible headaches and black outs. It turns out she has three completely different personalities. The doctors then diagnose her with, the very rare, Multiple Personality Disorder(now called Dissociative identity disorder)
She tries get help and work with her psychiatrist. The psychologist try to figure out the cause of MPS/DID and how to cure it.
Her follow up story
Chris Costner Sizemore is her real name. And she is still alive to this day and now has 22 personalities. She has written some books. And I believe she visits schools with her son.
