himself with the moral precepts of his parents. This identification with the parents results in the formation of the superego” (46). Freud dissected the superego and found that there are two components that create the superego.

Both forces strive for victory in the human mind. Both forces dictate the decisions of humans daily. In the movie, Regarding Henry, a narcissistic lawyer with a thirst to work and make money undergoes an extreme…

three parts to their personality. These three components are known as the id, the ego, and the superego. The id is selfish and doesn’t tend to other people's needs or aspirations, soley its own.
