Director : Geoffrey Sax
Running Time : 100 mins
Frankie Murdoch (Berry) is a go-go dancer in 1970s Los Angeles. Following an incident where she blacks out and assaults a bartender, she discovers that she suffers from multiple personality disorder and, with the help of a psychiatrist, Dr Oz (Skarsgard), she begins a journey to discover what caused this break and how she can try to get back to normal.
In spite of the fact this had almost no publicity outside of the US, and took five years to get released on DVD in the UK, this actually wasn’t that bad, and was doubly surprised to see Berry was nominated for a Golden Globe for her performance (though snubbed at the Oscars). I didn’t know what to expect when I started watching it, and was worried it was going to be a nonsense drama about a stripper and her struggles, but when the surprising twist happened and it turned out she suffered from dissociative identity disorder, I was pleasantly surprised by the outcome.
