This review is from: Jung and Film: Post-Jungian Takes on the Moving Image (Paperback)
This is a book of essays regarding film as interpreted through Jungian theory. the first among my favorites is--
a classic article by John Beebe regarding the anima in films--he also discussed in this article how he uses film to assist analysts to improve their understanding of object relations. Mary Dougherty's brilliant article (I paraphrase one of her sentences in the title of this review) discusses gendered dynamics and film as a force conditioning womens lives, bringing a womans developmental perspective on viewing film. She states that seeing powerful beautiful women such as Marilyn Monroe on the screen was part of her development of ego and gender identity. These experiences "privileged the power of being a desirable woman over the power of acting on my own desires." There is also a nice attempt by Lennihen to interpet the movie Pulp Fiction according to the principles of alchemy. There are other really good articles--but then this review would be too long!! |
