However, each film defines the “self” that is being fractured differently. For Inception , the self is composed of memory and guilt. The film’s famous final shot—a spinning top that may or may not stop—suggests that identity is perpetually uncertain; we are never sure if we are awake or dreaming. For Black Swan , the self is a performance. Nina cannot access the Black Swan because she has no shadow self to draw from; her psychosis is a violent attempt to manufacture one. For The Social Network , the self is a profile—a curated, inauthentic representation.
