EXPLORING PERSONALITY DISORDER THROUGH CREATIVITY IN THE MOVIES “ACRIMONY” AND “ORPHAN”

Abstract

This research examined personality disorder through creativity in our selected movies: “Acrimony” and “Orphan”. To carry out this investigation, we aimed at unraveling the roots of disorder through creativity in filmography. Hence, we transcribed the two movies as a source of our primary data then we employed Sigmund Freud’s psychoanalysis to trace personality disorder in the characters by deconstructing their behavioural patterns, actions and dialogues to prove that biological problem can be creatively responded to and resolve. Therefore this research seeks to explore personality disorder through creativity in the movies: “Acrimony” and “Orphan”. K2
