* {{spoiler|[[Kill the Cutie]]: Very nearly.}}
* [[Loony Fan]]: Me-Mania.
* [[The Man in
* [[Mean Character, Nice Actor]]: When Mima's ''Double Bind'' character is manhandled and raped by a rowdy crowd, the actor playing said rapist quietly stammers out "I'm so sorry" between takes.

Line 96:
** And another disorder related to Schizophrenia, called ''[http://www.health.am/psy/shared-psychotic-disorder/ Folie à deux]''. The subjective nature of a person's image and how it may differ from that actual person, possibly even taking on a life of its own, is one of the major points of the film.
