![Son of The Mask (2005) Anonymous Sun 27 Oct 2019 13:45:36 No.123187312 View Reply Original Report [9/5/ 8] Quoted By: >>123187471 >>123187833 >>123188486 >>123190311 Does the mask represent situationally acquired narcissism? Does his charming exterior hide an even smugger, predatory true self? Does Tim Avery's repressed self-loathing show the effort needed to maintain the two?

The film is about his struggle to overcome his shadow, the repressed desires and feelings within himself that he cannot face. He mis- uses his persona to hide from his own shadow, both to himself and others. It's not true narcissism, because if he were a true narcissist there would be no struggle at all with the mask, he would simply become it. Getting rid of the mask represents him facing and integrating his shadow so that he can more comfortably try to be himself regardless of the situation.

View Same Google iqdb SauceNAO Trace + image.jpg, 552KIB, 1700x903 Anonymous Sun 27 Oct 2019 14:12:21 No.123188507 Report The mask has split personality. The name "the mask" doesn't reference a physical mask, but rather the intangible "mask" used to hide this. The mask clearly has multiple personality disorder: the fact that in one second the mask understands what the bouncer is saying, yet the next second seems to misinterpret it, suggests either a memory disorder or, more likely, a personality disorder. The difference between the two personalities shown in the start of the scene is clear: one is a duller, more serious personality (now referred to as Kennedy) and the other is a more wacky, zany, more mocking personality (referred to as Carrey). The obvious split is upon the ID/IV gag: Kennedy reiterates what the bouncer asked, so he can be sure to collect the correct item from his pockets, but as he does so the Carrey personality gains the spotlight, and purposely, almost mockingly, pulls out an IV stand. When the guard corrects him, Carrey airquotes the phrase "my bad". This implies that the mask is attempting to say that, whilst it is his fault, it is not truly his fault, but the fault of one of his many personalities and that he shouldn't take 100% of the blame. Carrey then attempts to pull another gag, one presumably involving many pairs of trousers as he finds "which one he left it in", but Kennedy manages to pull back the spotlight and cuts the gag short, procuring the desired identification required to enter the event. This theory is further supported by the musical number: the song goes through distinct phases, each corresponding to a different genre. During each of these, the titular Mask has a different outfit. This gives weight to the MPD claim, as each section is a different personality controlling our protagonist, and switching the song and the outfit to their favourite. This results in a hodgepodge musical number that's hard to follow. Furthermore, the different camera angles used suggest a message: each personality views the party, and life, in a different way.
