  Article:   APPROCHES PSYCHOLOGIQUES ET PSYCHANALITIQUES. CINEMATIC SYMPTOMS – PSYCHOANALYTICAL KEYS TO UNDERSTANDING THE ROMANIAN „NEW WAVE”.

Authors:  DORU POP.
 
       
         
  Abstract:  

Psychoanalytical interpretation was extensively used as a method in cinema and provided access to latent significances in moviemaking. The author uses some key terms in psychoanalytical theory, like trauma, identification, fetishism or Oedipal complex, to give some insights into the framework of the „New Wave” in the Romanian cinema and as a tool for explaining the impact their cinematic images had on the contemporary spectators. Dealing with complex issues of authority and paternal complexes, the young generation of Romanian cinematographers is „read” by their symptoms, somatizations at three possible levels of interpretation: cinematography, themes and the relationship with the viewer.

Keywords: Psychoanalysis in cinema, Romanian New Wave, trauma, communism, identity.
