JaH: An “Anima Woman” Finds Herself
April 25, 2022 @ 5:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Event Navigation
Otto Preminger’s Laura (1944) introduces us to a young woman who receives and reflects the projections of others as if that were her main reason for existing. As played by actress Gene Tierney, Laura is intelligent, adept, and hollow.
Unlived aspects of her potential personality are personified in the characters of her misfit friends and relations and the police detective (Dana Andrews) who is investigating what was thought to be her murder. As the story moves toward resolution, vital parts of Laura’s personality begin to take root and blossom.
John Beebe, M.D. is a Jungian analyst and past president of the C. G. Jung Institute of San Francisco who has spearheaded a Jungian approach to the analysis of film. In teaching and writing, he has often used psychological type and archetype to explore both individual filmmaker creativity and the cultural and political unconscious as revealed by a moving film. Dr. Beebe’s books include Integrity in Depth and Energies and Patterns in Psychological Type. With Virginia Apperson, he has co-authored The Presence of the Feminine in Film.
