Joanne Woodward (Mr. & Mrs. Bridge; The Long, Hot Summer) received the Best Actress Academy Award? for her riveting portrayal of a woman cursed with three distinct personalities in THE THREE FACES OF EVE, written, produced and directed by Nunnally Johnson (The Man Who Understood Women; How to Be Very, Very Popular). Based on the true story of a young Georgia woman with multiple personality disorder, the film stars Woodward as Eve White, a quiet, ordinary wife and mother who keeps suffering from headaches, blackouts and extreme mood swings. Her puzzled husband (David Wayne, The Andromeda Strain, How to Marry a Millionaire) takes her to see a psychiatrist, Dr. Luther (Lee J. Cobb, The Exorcist, Coogan's Bluff), who is intrigued by the case; while under hypnosis, a whole new personality emerges: the racy, wild, fun-loving Eve Black. Still a third incarnation appears: the thoughtful, stable, well-balanced Jane. Each personality seems unrelated to the other. Through continued hypnosis, Dr. Luther clears away the less favorable personalities and allows her to emerge as a normal, mentally healthy woman.
