Re: Film ?

I am not sure that I have correctly understood OP. There is also the problem that “the unconscious” is a suspect concept, although it may sometimes be used in a flawless way.

Re: Film ?

I'm pretty sure you invented at least ten of those films

Re: Film ?

I wouldn't say 'all aspects' but Forbidden Planet(1964) explores some of them. And I'd like to second Lilith (1964) But I don't see what this has to do with books, lol.

Re: Film ?

Dear Mark.

Try to divine some of those movies I have not seen, but just boast of having seen.

Anyway, you are in the best company. In the academic world I am used to meet this criticism. For instance, after I had defended my doctoral thesis a professor of psychology and practising psychoanalyst wrote a whole page in the greatest newspaper of the university town. He asserted that he had compared the accounts of Freud’s Dora case in my thesis, with Freud’s original text. Thereby he had seen that my accounts consisted of no more than propagandistic distortions.

His comparison is somewhat strange because Freud’s case of Dora is nowhere mentioned in my doctoral thesis.
