----------------------------Original message---------------------------- I suggest you check out the book Couching Resistance: Women, Film, and Psychoanalytic Psychiatry by Janet Walker. It discusses the above in reference to films from 45-65(ish). I'm using it in my current research about women and tranquilizers in popular culture, but it sounds more suited to work in psychology in films (as that what she spends most of the book discussing). ******** jajasoon tlitteu ([log in to unmask]) "You've probably heard that Microsoft has recently taken over the Catholic Church. The Vatican was pleased, saying, 'Well, we've been using icons for over 2000 years, and Microsoft has only been using them for 3, so we figure we'll be able to help them out a bit.'"
