Blue Violet Movie Questions
Question#2.
Read the scene from Blue Velvet (below) in its entirety. A 2 paragraph response that discusses any Freudian implications the scene may reveal. For example, do you see evidence of Oedipal confusion? Can you see the tripartite psyche at work (id, ego, superego)? Are there evidence of childhood psychosexual development issues (oral, anal, genital stages)?
What if Frank came over here and found us?where do you see Dorothy’s and Jeffrey’s shadows? Can you see the archetypes of the self at work (shadow, anima, persona) and identify what they are for each character? Do you see examples of projection? Do you see any similarities between Dorothy and Jeffrey to characters in other films? Be specific and use words from the script to back up your observations.
