Films have a lot of layers. When you dig deeper, you can understand more of what the people who create the film intend to convey. With this book, Anita is giving people a crash course. The movie is not finished just because you leave the theater. You are still thinking about it, and there are always new references and things to discover. The dots are there, you just have to connect them.'  ~Banksy, (artist)From the Preface by the author:Every Saturday during my teens, I went to the movies by myself where I was transported into another world. While walking home, I was immersed in the movie I had just seen, often identifying with one of the characters. I continued to remain in the world of the movie for many hours, during supper, and until I went to sleep.  It is not surprising that my interest in movies foretold my chosen profession as a psychoanalyst. I observe and listen to people and try to understand them on a deeper level. Understanding people, their motivations, dilemmas, hopes, desires, and fears, are so often the subject of the movies that intrigue me. The difference is in my role as psychotherapist I will have an impact on the course of their life. The movies I’ve chosen to include in this book have enlightened, impressed, moved and entertained me. Some of them are disturbing but deal with important issues of being human. I have tried to represent the totality of the human experience.  Writing this book has been a journey much like working with someone in psychotherapy. The exceptional power of movies has helped me to go deeper into understanding the human condition.  I share my journey in writing this book with all who are interested in understanding what movies mean to them.

    Eugene Halliday / Zhu Kabere
    Three particular themes are basic to this study.

Second, and closely related to the first tenet, man is not separable from his environment. We all share in this...
