Fellow prosopagnosian here, (don't know if that's a word) I have always struggled to watch a new movie/TV and favour watching the same movie multiple times, recently I've come to the conclusion I don't get enjoyment from films on the first time round as I can't follow characters through the film. That a thing for you?

Not OP but I do have prosopagnosia and did the test. For me personally I didn't struggle with this as the photos were identical when they repeated so while I wouldn't have recognised the face so much, the other clues and characteristics I use are still there such as hair style, a certain mole etc...where I struggle is when people change these characteristics or if I see them outside if their setting that I'm used to. I rely alot on voice and people's gait to recognise them in real life. I don't think this test is a good indicator personally. I think it would give much clearer indicator by having multiple photos of the same person to use as repeats.
