Sybil Movie

[mysticeden.livejournal.com]

I finally saw Sybil this weekend with my room mate who is also a multiple. I had read the book but never seen the film. I thought her acting was amazing! Me and my room mate both looked at each other in shock. If we hadn't known it was an actress I might have believed her. I was surprised since she's a singlet (as far as I know).

Besides from that the movie was good, although I don't understand why they made all the alters into children. That was very weird especially since a lot of them were either the same age as Sybil or older. In all reality I cant judge the movie alone because all the holes in the story I knew about since I read the book.

One question though, who was the guy? does anyone know? I knew of a few different guys in the book, but the love interest in the movie seemed like a combination of them and her best friend (who did not appear in the movie anyway).


Well this is just me ranting but I'd like to hear your opinions on this movie or the book.

Interesting. I would think that a "good alter" wouldn't throw a baby into the street. I would think that at the very least, that "good alter" would do something so that 'strange baby who came from nowhere and the good alter has no memory of' would be taken care of-- police, foster care, adoption, etc. Throwing a newborn baby in the street-- what the hell?!

Yes. That's what we thought. I mean, come on! "Good" is right in this person's title. Hee!! Chunking babies like yesterday's garbage is so not something you expect from the "good alter"
