Britain/Austria/Netherlands, 2006, Sophie Fiennes
Slovenia’s Slavoj Zizek is a superstar among philosophers and psychoanalysts, drawing rock-star crowds at speaking engagements around the world. He is also a serious film buff, and in this new, three-part film he delves into the hidden language of cinema, uncovering what movies can tell us about ourselves. Using ample clips from movies by David Lynch, Hitchcock, Kubrick, Chaplin, Tarkovsky, and others, Zizek expounds on fantasy, reality, sexuality, subjectivity, desire, materiality, and cinematic form. “A highly entertaining and often brilliant tour of modern cinema.” /–The Guardian. /In English. Cleveland premiere. DVD. 150 min.
