Session 115: “The Pervert’s Guide to Cinema”

During this Theory Tuesdays session, Daniel Morgenthaler screened and lead discussion about two-parts of the three-part film „The Pervert’s Guide to Cinema“.

SYNOPSIS: “The Pervert’s Guide to Cinema” takes the viewer on an exhilarating ride through some of the greatest movies ever made. Serving as presenter and guide is the charismatic Slavoj Zizek, acclaimed philosopher and psychoanalyst. With his engaging and passionate approach to thinking, Zizek delves into the hidden language of cinema, uncovering what movies can tell us about ourselves. Whether he is untangling the famously baffling films of David Lynch, or overturning everything you thought you knew about Hitchcock, Zizek illuminates the screen with his passion, intellect, and unfailing sense of humor.

Participants: 47
