I'll start posting some movies in this thread that incorporate mind control subplots. We can discuss as anyone see fit.

Fight Club
Here, the main actor, Edward Norton, displays two distinct alters, presented as the characters Tyler Durden AND The Narrator character.

Inception Here, Dreams are presented as allegories for Societal Mind Control (ie Controlling the Public "Mind").
I love the scene where the girl-student is walking on the bridge and rotates two huge mirrors so that they are pointing at each other. The reflection in the mirror represents what Baudrillard called a "Simulation" of realty. So, the mirrors pointing at each other create infinite reflections on each other, creating infinite Simulactions of Simulations. Or, what Baudrillard would call Simulacra, as the copy of the copy no longer represents reality. Great stuff, and so blatant.

Telefon This movie is pretty blatant, showing in this scene how trigger words are delivered to a Mind Control subject, activating an Alter that's programmed with a given pre-programmed task.

And of course, the Bourne Identity Trilogy with Matt Damon, about a CIA-killer gone rogue. Of course, Bourne has been programmed with multiple personalities (Alters), and is now supposedly reconciling these multiple personalities as he discovers more information about himself.

Interesting that there is a real Peter G Bourne who was a noted Army psychiatrist in Vietnam, an asst secretary to the United Nations, and a Health Chief under Carter. He has been Professor and Chairman, and Vice Chancellor, of St. George's University in Grenada. [St. George's was founded in 1977. A "Marxist" coup overthrew the government of Grenada in 1979, and in 1983 the US invaded Grenada and ovethrew it.]
