Alternatively, you may refer to a psychoanalytic thinker of your choosing (please discuss with tutor). directly quote from these thinkers (that is, you must quote directly from some of their writings in elaborating your analysis).Choose one question from the following:[Question 1] Choose a scene from a film in which you analyse a representation of the psychiatric/psychoanalytical process, i.e., a scene in which a character is being psychoanalysed by a doctor (this scene can be a technological variant of this process: the scenes in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, for example, where the protagonists are having their memories erased by doctors) How is this scene represented is it critical of the psychiatric/psychoanalytical process? If so, how does it do this? you should analyse performance, dialogue, mise en scene, cinematography, etc.
What purpose does the scene serve in the overall narrative of the film?
How does this scene articulate the overall theme(s) of the film?[Question 3] Choose a scene from a film or television episode in which there is representation of a particular Jungian Archetype. Describe how the archetype functions within the overall narrative structure of the film.
Analyse how the archetype is represented in the film (you should analyse the actors performance, if appropriate, the mise en scene, the cinematography, etc).
If possible, relate the functioning of this archetype in the film to its appearance in other forms, i.e. fairy tales or other narrative forms.[Question 4] A representation of a non-western view or attitude towards the human soul or psyche. To do this you will need to research the background to the film or television episode, and to research the particular non-western view or attitude towards the human soul or psyche and its cultural background.
You should analyse the actors performance, the dialogue, the mise en scene, the cinematography, etc.The film you choose does not have to be narrative/fictional: it can be a documentary, experimental or some other form of moving imagebut it must have something to say about the nature of the human psyche and relate to the questions (above).
