>Aris and all, I erred in my initial post: the example of the parallel witch >movie to _Blair Witch Project_, especially in the alternation of >black-and-white and color footage, is _The Wizard of Oz-, not _Gone with >the >Wind_ (?). That makes much more sense now JMC - wonder how Freud would interpret that slip-of-the-keyboard :-) All interpretations, however, are not. For Freud interpretations >hinge on psychic states. I guess this also relates to the idea of transference and counter-transference in the psychoanalytic experience? How the analyst and the patient kind of get into a feedback loop whereby each projects stuff onto the other. Which leads us to the question: is there any 'valid' interpretaion? I guess not, in any 'objective' sense, but then the 'authentic' in the interpretation results in being the one more effective for the analysis and the working-out of the dream. >Your example of your friend liking _BWP_ better on videotape than at the >cinema, Aris, >shows how much we take video to be "authentic," "caught-on-tape" footage, >correct? Well, this is correct at least when it comes to the specific film, which promises itself to be the 'footage found' - in its video form, there it is, the actual video tape.
