The Dark Mirror

Psychiatry and Film Noir

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The Dark Mirror explores the richness of psychiatric imagery in film noir and how the popularization of psychoanalysis in the U.S. during the 1940s and 1950s influenced film noir as a whole. Santos examines many little-known films and unearths surprising discoveries about the psychological underpinnings of noir.
