Freud had been working on time perception using the analogy of the waxed drawing tablet used by children, while Marey had been involved in recording movements through photography."

- The movies 'Sea of Love' and 'Working Girl' present the collective social fantasy of the phallic woman. Ellen Barkin's portrayal of a serial killer in the 'Sea of Love' is skillfully played against her traditionally sexy demeanor as she seduces a police detective. In 'Working Girl,' the mannish antagonist, a conniving businesswomen played by Sigourney Weaver, is disarmed by the traditionally womanly Melanie Griffith.

- "Film discourse has been dominated by feminist supremacy since the 1980s, a hegemony that appears to result in a new approach in considering the relationship of men and male subjectivity to film. This new approach, in turn, is drastically complicating the critical and theoretical understanding of the cinematic process. The combination of psychoanalysis, semiotics, feminism and ideological analysis that predominated in previous cinematic theory is further being explored. Films are also continued to be viewed as texts that are inexorably related to social, cultural and ideologicl contexts." [Expanded Academic Index]

- "Argues that it is possible to develop a paradigm that encompasses both psychoanalytical & Marxist-informed approaches to film studies without becoming overly deterministic. It is noted that a re-appraisal of the Screen project led to the rejection of Marxism & an elevation of psychoanalytic concepts. An examination of fetishism, one of the least popular concepts of early psychoanalytic film theory, is used to show that it does not result in the reductionism critics claim it does. Consideration is given to how fetishism leads the analysis of cinema in the direction of sexual fetishism & the libidinal investment of spectators. The commodity of fetishism & the economic basis of the cinematic industry are addressed. It is maintained that a Marxist understanding of cinema as an institution & a commodity is necessary for recognizing the significance of film within a globalized media culture. Neither the perceived closure of the apparatus model nor the positing of passive spectators results from theorization within psychoanalysis or Marxism; however, both insist that "subjectivity is constituted through structure regardless of the particularities of individual identities."

- "Explores how recent cinematic takes on bad feelings are making possible exciting, eccentric, polymorphous, & queer ways of narrating female desire. Thus, demonstrated is desire rife with bad feeling & bad feeling as stoking desires. Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick's (1995) thought on shame & Silvan Tomkins's (1963) phenomenology of shame underpin readings of Lynne Ramsay's Morvern Callar (2002), Denise Goncalves's Sound of Steps (1996), & Catherine Breillat's A Real Young Girl (1976). Along the lines of psychoanalytic feminist film theory, the operations of looking, ie, considerations of how cinematic structures produce subjective attachments underpin the analysis, & this is considered in terms of Laura Mulvey's (1975) "look of the audience." In this light, it is suggested that the fact that audiences watch film portrayals of shame points to the tensions between the "affective fullness" at play in the films & the "iconoclastic, antipleasure aesthetics proscribed by psychoanalytic feminism." The individuating force of shame may foster a simultaneity of absorption & disidentification for spectators, with shame understood as a form of enabling knowledge for seeing & feeling desires & attachments that requires neither identification nor repulsion & may be more like empathy."

- "Psychoanalytic theory is Euro-centered in its values and mind-set. It is also person-centered, and therefore does not cope with the social contexts of African American neuroses. The same kind of ideological blindness with respect to women and blacks in film pervades the genre. The portrayals of psychoanalytic limitations in movies such as 'The Snake Pit' and 'Home of the Brave.' is examined." [Expanded Academic Index]

- Several different academic disciplines are linked in the study of psychoanalysis and film: feminism, film criticism, psychoanalytic theory, political psychology, cultural studies, and Marxist theory. This broad range of disciplines forced American Imago editors to plan to devote a forthcoming issue to the specific issues surrounding psychoanalysis and men in film.

The Victorian medical fascination with hysterical female psychoses is compared with the way that US films have repressed female trauma about sexual violence. 'Thelma and Louise' is analyzed in terms male fantasies about mystical reunions with mother nature." [Expanded Academic Index]

- The analogy between dream and film represents a central thread in the psychoanalytic discussion of cinema. Using examples taken from films created between 1900 and 1906, this paper develops a typology of dream scenes in early film. The basis for the proposed typology is provided by the dream knowledge in circulation toward the end of the nineteenth century. This knowledge was fed by a great variety of sources, some of them in the proximity of scientific research and some of them far from it, including wish-fulfilling prognostic models and those based on the reservoir of memory or on bodily stimuli. By setting cinema in a context of contemporary dream psychologies, it is possible to trace the specific conditions under which the analogy between dream and cinema could become effective.

- "The relation between psychoanalysis and films and the unbreakable connection between psychoanalysis, smoking and the disappearance of metaphysics has been discussed. Using Philip R. Lehrman's 'psychoanalytic documentary' as a springboard, the historical perspective, which was mainly based on feature films till now, can include films where psychoanalysts are involved on both sides of the camera."

- "A phenomenological analysis of film endings reveals certain problems with Heidegger's notions of authenticity and inauthenticity. The psychoanalytic view of the spectator as passively identifying with the camera resembles Heidegger's description of inauthenticity. This would suggest that the film ending functions like awareness of death to promote authentic integration of the self. However, Heidegger portrays the individual in isolation and gives only a very selective view of history's role. The analysis of film endings should give more consideration to the social context."

- "Emerging at the same historical moment, psychoanalysis and cinema followed similar paths: invention at the end of the nineteenth century, development at the turn of the century, and then immense change and expansion at the time of the First World War. They have influenced one another ever since. Both played major roles in the formation of modern thought and modes of perception, while confronting the crisis of modernity in the wake of World War I. Ultimately, they prefigured postmodernism by questioning the boundaries of the modern subject and decentering its position in the world. And, significantly, underlying the theoretical foundations and historical trajectories of both psychoanalysis and cinema was Shakespeare. It was Hamlet-specifically Hamlet on the silent screen-that figured most prominently at the crucial juncture of psychoanalysis and cinema following the First World War, signaling the end of romantic notions of civilization and progress. The Great War catalyzed that shift, as the horror of mechanized warfare confirmed the achievement ofWestern technology while exposing its horrific potential. On screen, Hamlet came to manifest this duality."

- "Compares the emotions we have in watching a movie with those we have in everyday life. Everyday emotion is loose in frame or context but rather controlled & regulated in content. Movie emotion, in contrast, is tightly framed & boundaried but permissive & uncontrolled in content. Movie emotion is therefore quite safe & inconsequential but can still be unusually satisfying & pleasurable. I think of movie emotion as modeling clay that can symbolize all sorts of human troubles. A major junction of movies then is catharsis, a term I use more inclusively than usual. Throughout I use a pragmatist approach to film theory. This position gives the optimal distance to the study of ordinary, middle-level emotion. In contrast, psychoanalysis is too close & cognitive theory too distant. This middle position is similar to Arlie Hochschild's symbolic interactionist approach to the sociology of emotions, which also mediates between psychoanalysis & cognitive theories."

- Queer theory is the burgeoning study of the psychoanalytical, archeological and practical differences that mark gay life and its manifestations in politics, art, work and film. Queer theory attempts to avoid identity politics while maintaining the uniqueness of the gay culture. Psychoanalytic differences have primarily been the domain of lesbian studies and feminist film theory, whereas archeological differences have been the domain of gay men due largely to gay historiography.
