Hide and Seek is a 2005 psychological thriller starring RobertDeNiro and a then relatively-unknown Dakota Fanning.
This film is about a psychiatrist named David Callaway, who moves to upstate New York with his daughter, Emily, following the suicide of her mother. While settling into their new home, Emily begins conversing with an imaginary friend named Charlie, while at the same time becoming close to a neighbouring couple who lost their own daughter to cancer.
Emily's irrational behaviour starts to worry David, and things come to a head when a woman he has befriended named Elizabeth is killed while she is playing with Emily. Emily blames the murder on Charlie. David confronts his neighbour, believing him to be "Charlie", and drives him away.
However, a plot twist is soon revealed: [[spoiler: [[TomatoInTheMirror David IS Charlie]]. Charlie formed when David caught his wife cheating on him. In one night, David, under the Charlie personality, murdered his wife and made it look like she committed suicide. Of course, this means that David has also murdered Elizabeth. After discovering that he is responsible, Charlie [[SplitPersonalityTakeover takes him over for good]], saying [[ThatManIsDead "It's okay. Daddy's gone now"]].]]
