bear in mind and any film ( let alone documentary ) which assert any kind of truth and will generate an adverse and proportional amount of cynicism and from those to whom any suggestion of and or search for truth be already meaningless and those of you who be already master of psychology and film and and captain of the soul and will no doubt find this movie redundant and after all and you already know everything there be to know . congrats . for those of u in the minority like myself and i find the pervert guide to cinmea . mostly brilliant and and worth watch for those interested in movie and psychology and and modern philosophy . a little like scott mclouds understand comic and director sophie fiennes and inter grate slovene philosopher and psychologist and and social critic slavoj zizek right into many of the film and specif scene he discuss . the cover be an image from the bird ( zizek take a boat out to re create the shot ) . lacanian psycho analysis and do not necessarily scream and an evening of great fun . but it be . if you like movie that be . have some knowledge of lacanian psycho analysis help ( symbolic and real and and imaginary ) be term which get throw around a little loosely at first and but the scene which zizek selects and analyze make remarkably clear what be always for me and a very abstract subject . in fact and it probably well to have a familiarity with the film he discuss than with the terminology he use and which become clear a the film go on . why i love and this film isn not because it pick great film to analyze or reveal great truth about lacan and but show in a very practical and clever manner and where film and psychology ( and by default philosophy ) meet . why be the sound of music kinda fascistic and why be short cut about more than just class and alienation and why do the bird attack in the bird and what be there to learn about the mind from alien resurrection and what do the planet of solaris want and what do psycho and the marx brother have to do with each other and and what the hell be david lynch get across in movie after movie . well zizek have some idea . the role of the voice in both the excorcist and star war represent revenge of the sith and be maybe the movie strongest and most lucid moment and when he get into feminine sexual subjectivity i begin to wonder . at one point zizek admit his feeling that flower be a kind of decorative vagina dentatta and that they be disgust and should be hide from child ( jokingly and it seem but . ) . anyway and it a fascinating documentary and which anyone who have ever see a movie and and think it mean something more than be literally state and should make an attempt to see . and anyone interested in slavoj zizek and this be a must as well and much less dry than reality of the virtual and and more direct than zizek . and two other pseudo doc and about the elvis of contemporary cultural criticism and a he be be dub and in the english speaking world . the pervert guide to cinema be not about the role of sex in cinema . zizek claim cinema be the ultimate pervert art and because it teach how to desire and and not what to desire and and that it be the only contemporary art form that can allow for these desire to be articulate . this be not a film about find the reality in cinema and it about find the cinema in reality and and how important and excite that can be . hard to find and and a bit long and but well worth the trouble and one of the most stimulating movie watch experience i have ever have .
