Sybil (2007) (TV)

It is about a woman being treated for dissociative identity disorder, stemming from a childhood of terrible abuse and suffering.

My comments follow the general pattern, namely, that the extreme temporal compression produces a rushedness in the presentation which makes it impossible for the viewer to have an adequate appreciation of the story in its full dimensions, dramatic and otherwise. The direction job is fine, nonetheless.
