When an actor becomes possesed by the Character

[Rafael Thundercat]

Long ago I heard about actors becoming so emeshed with the character they play or pretend to be that it affect their lifes, sometimes in very disturbing ways, I think the Joker is one of the most recent examples of it. So it could be add to the trap of becoming an actor as Leo said in his episode. You think being an actor is easy life, but what when your ae playing with a achetype so much that It clue in your psyche and become you? Playing with Identity is really not a safe game. 

I was talking with a friend and he recommended this old movie that tell the story of a Spanish Conquistador 

The movie is with Klaus Kinski that actually become God Complexided after making the movie. Myabe it was all due his own personality,Traumas,stress and even the faxct that he was recording in the Jungle a very intense place to play such crazy character. 

This fenomena of possesion is interesting. I would not belive it but recently I was present in a exorcism made by a amazon pajé or shaman. He opened a individual service inside the group service, he brougth the client in the middle of the room and started to call the spirit of Jaguar. For all I could see and hear, there was something inside the client that was raging to come out. after around 20 minutes or more of work the man relaxed and came back to his place. 

Anyone know more stories like this?
