Toni Collette plays adorable suburban mom Tara...with dissociative identity disorder.
Her 4 personalities:
1. 15 year old "T" who smacks bubble gum and wears hot pink thongs that ride up her butt.
2. Middle-aged "Buck" who talks about his time in Nam, drives a Harley, wears flannel and
trucker hats, and smokes Lucky Strikes.
3. 50s housewife "Alice" who sounds like Grace Kelly, bakes cupcakes, and wears sundresses
with red bows and strawberries like a Stepford wife.
4. Tara herself: a wonderfully frustrated and dynamic Collette who is eternally grateful to her
understanding husband (John Corbett) and two kids (and who hides her Australian accent
phenomenally well).
D.I.D. is pretty common, I guess; a small hippocampus in patients that affects long term
memory loss while "alters" (other personalities) take over.
Hilarious, heartwarming, and interesting, I highly suggest.
