This is an interesting insight. I struggled to watch movies as a kid as well and I also had a terrible time following characters as I couldn’t recognize or remember their faces from scene to scene. I also had undiagnosed ADHD and it was hard for me to sit still for 2.5 hours.  I’m highly intelligent otherwise and seem to have grown out of it now as an adult. [/quote]

I have a bit of this. Always struggled with faces. The worst movie for me was watching the departed with Matt Damon & Leonardo di caprio, had to keep checking with dh who is who. I usually rely on non facial features to recognize people, haircut, skin color etc. These two where identical :)[/quote]

I didn’t realize how much I rely on other cues to ID people until I watched Orphan Black (show with a bunch of clones played by one actress). When a new clone was introduced, I had no idea it was the same person, because the new character had a different hair style & hair color. [/quote]
