Director: M. Night Shyamalan
Plot: Three girls are kidnapped by a man with a diagnosed 23 distinct personalities. They must try to escape before the apparent emergence of a frightful new 24th.
Rotten Tomatoes: 79%
Marcela Notes: Umm imo one of M. Night's best films, I'm gonna say it, thanks to James "My Boyfriend" McAvoy. Oscar worthy performance, special spotlight on Hedwig's dance scene. NOBODY asked or cares, but, the first time I saw this was luckily enough a secret screening of the world premiere at Fantastic Fest- no one else had seen it before! A N D when the credits rolled, sitting in the literal very front row, James cand M. Night surprised the theater by casually walking in, standing literally 5 feet from me. To this day, over a decade later, I regret not rushing them even if it got me kicked out of the festival. Sigh.
