025 - Movie Analysis: Titanic

“It is not possible to live too long amid infantile surroundings, or in the bosom of the family, without endangering one’s psychic health. Life calls forth to independence, and anyone who does not head this call because of childish laziness or timidity is threatened with neurosis.” C.G. Jung What do you get when you combine romance and spectacle? One of the most successful movies of all time and a great display of the individuation process of a trapped woman. Viewed through a Jungian lens, one can observe the positive encounter with her animus, finding life and fighting for it. Caution: There will be tons of spoilers. I recommend watching the movie before the event. See you there!
