CastJoanne Woodward Sally Field Brad Davis Martine Bartlett Jane Hoffman William Prince
NotesSally Field is the young woman with seventeen different personalities and considered to make a good job of the part. Joanne Woodward (see below "The Three Faces of Eve") is the psychiatrist. This film might be worth contrasting with "Dialogues with Madwomen" (1994) a documentary in which one of the women has twenty-five personalities.
