Summary: Sybil
Comment: A well done film version of this tragic story. I am studying advanced psychology and this film served as a good teaching tool; giving an indepth insight into the dark recesses of mental illness.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Absolutely breathtaking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Comment: I have been wanting to see this movie for so many years and finally did! Well worth the money and probably the best movie I've ever seen! Sally Field has always been wonderful in my opinion, but this is her best work out of them all. Watching the second disc that has movie extras just makes it even more breathtaking! ***** Definitely 5 stars! A MUST SEE!!!!

Comment: A very good film on an important subject. Sally Fields really shines as the title character(s) as does Dan Petrie's excellent direction. Hard to believe that this was a MOW over thirty years ago.

Summary: For some, just waking up is an adventure most will never live
Comment: I work professionally with mentally ill people. I've been one myself (Bipolar. I figured out years ago how to turn that around.) So I've always been curious about Sybil. And as always, I am a 70's movies addict.
This is not the kind of illness I normally work with but many years back I did, at times, work with people like this. I felt for their pain but the disease utterly fascinated me!
The presentation of the illness interested me to some degree in Sybil. However, I was more intrigued by what happened to Sybil to cause her personality to fracture into an entire group within her. What horrendous load was put upon her that this was her reponse? And I was blown away by Sally Fields' ability to do this role! The energy and emotion involved must have wiped her out. I was truly impressed with her acting skills. This role was work!
But the overall theme makes me remember, as I tell so many others, "Be nice. You never know what the other guy is up against. You never know the pain some people carry but keep hidden."

Comment: I ordered this video thru Amazon and received it before the anticipated shipping due date. I received free shipping also. I have wanted this movie for a very long time and was not disappointed....it's even better than I remembered it. Sally Field is such a wonderful actress and this was a phenomenal protrayal of a woman having multiple personalities. I would highly recommend this movie.
