Summary:

This systematic attempt to apply Jungian theory to the analysis of films covers 2001: A Space Odyssey, The Silence of the Lambs and The Piano as well as a variety of cultural icons and products such as Madonna, Michael Jackson and televised sport. Through these and other examples, John Izod demonstrates how Jungian theory can bring new tools to film and media studies and new ways of understanding screen images and narratives.

Average Customer Rating:

A Jungian analysis of the "shaping myths of our time"

Customer Rating:

Izod concisely lays out a method of approaching films using Jungian interpretation. Much has been written on film interpretation from a Freudian viewpoint. The field of Jungian film interpretation is growing rapidly in popularity. His chapter on pop stars-particularly Madonna as trickster is excellent. I can also recommend his chapter interpreting Silence of the Lambs.

This is a book written for serious Jungian scholars. However for those needing a quick overview Izod does a nice job of explicating the basics of Jungian theory. Izod's interpretations are good and it is clear he has a passion for film and Jungian theory. All in all a very interesting book!
