Nina Sayers - Black Swan: Nina most likely suffers from Schizoprenia and a disscociative personality disorder. Nina is a ballet dancer who auditions for a play. She gets into conflict with the director and other actress. She is plauged by intense hallucinations throughout the movie, increasing in severity each time. At the end of the movie, she even tries to fight a hallucination of herself, but is revealed that she stabbed herelf in the confusion. She goes on to perform and gives a perfect performance. I am summarizing greatly, but the movie shows us a look at how dangerous obsession can be. We feel ninas struggle as she desires to be the best. Vicitms of schizoprenia can suffer grealty just like nina from visual and auditory hallucinations.
