Review of The Three Faces of Eve

Excellent performance from Lee J Cobb as the psychiatrist, phenomenal performance from Joanne Woodward as the victim of multiple personality disorder and a really fine, tight, dramatic and emotional film. There is little action in the accepted sense but there is never a dull moment either as we ride the switchback of this psychological drama from the little housewife with a headache problem to the vivacious and flirty and more. The introduction by Alistair Cooke sets the basically serious tone and although I understand changes were made from the original case and the book, the tale is as true to actuality as possible. It seems the real 'Eve' had to sign three contracts in her three personalities at the outset and her signature was different on each. Creepy, hair raising and constantly involving and believable.
