My favorite movie character is Dr. Frank-N-Furter from the movie The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Frank is something of a mad scientist, bent on creating the perfect life form to serve as his sexual plaything. He seems to be the leader of the Transylvanians on Earth. Frank is mainly concerned with himself and lacks the ability to see the consequences of his behavior.

How he classifies into being an assertive person is because he is the boss of everyone. In the movie it shows him being aggressive and assertive to his servants and fellow Transylvanians Columbia, Magenta, Riff Raff, Eddie-the ex-delivery boy and even his own creation Rocky. * Neuroticism- means a person is anxious, prone to depression and worries a lot.

He definitely has a hard time controlling his anger and hostility and does not think about the outcome of his actions. * Openness to Experience- means a person is imaginative; independent minded and has divergent thinking. I think that this one fits him the best because he is very creative and for sure thinks differently. In the movie he is creating his own creation, a boy who he names Rocky Horror. By doing this it shows that he has a very imaginative mind and is
