(It has not been finished yet, why is there no function of saving it as a draft??) First of all, I would like to correct or analyze a vague and confusing understanding of some friends. What makes actor James McAvoy great is not his ability to play different sides of a split personality in the same movie. That is to say, his switching ability of playing Zhang San, Li Si, and then Wang Wu is not an extraordinary ability. This kind of character switching is very common in our Spring Festival Gala stage sketches, not to mention these The switching of sketches is completed in a short period of time, while the filming of movies is a longer process, and the actors can switch easily with large gaps.

The excellence of James McAvoy lies in the delicacy and richness with which he realizes a character--when he incarnates Barry and confronts the female doctor, the external cynicism can be clearly seen if you stare at him seriously. I noticed the fleeting fear and inferiority of the male protagonist's real personality under Barry's cynical flashy exaggerated expression hidden in the superficial personality. If you really carefully observe his facial expression at this time, that kind of feeling It's like tasting a grain of salt in a glass of boiled water. It's amazing.
