I'm sorry, I think I didn't understand this movie!!! Are Adrian Brody and Yellow the same person?? How was I suppossed to figure it out (as many other people here sa), if in several scenes they are one against the other??? Yellow even falls from the roof at the end...
And who is Byron Diedra? I think I may have missed a part? When is Adrian Brody using that pseudonym???

Can anybody explain me please?? Thanks!!!

Are Adrian Brody and Yellow the same person??

No.

'Yellow' and 'Inspector Enzo' are two different characters. They are both played by Adrian Brody, but are not meant to be the same person.

For the part of "Yellow", Brody is credited under the pseudonym "Byron Deidra" (an anagram of his own name); this is because he and Argento wanted the audience to think "Yellow" was played by an unknown actor.

It's needlessly complicated.

I don't know if this post clears up any of the confusion, but hopefully it helped.

Yes, actually, it did indeed!!
Thank you! I think I got too mixed up reading the other comments, because until reading these, I had no problem with the movie...
Anyway, thanks!

Having Brody play both characters with no meaning attached to that was very distracting.
