Welcome to Rendering Unconscious – the Gradiva award-winning podcast about psychoanalysis & culture, with me, Dr Vanessa Sinclair. https://renderingunconscious.substack.com Rendering Unconscious episode 349. RU349: MARY WILD & VANESSA SINCLAIR TALK PSYCHOANALYSTS & THERAPISTS ON FILM https://renderingunconscious.substack.com/p/ru349-mary-wild-and-vanessa-sinclair I sat down with Freudian cinephile Mary Wild to dish about shrinks on film. This episode was originally recorded for Mary’s Patreon channel. Mary has just launched her own Substack. Be sure to give her a follow and support independent thinkers: https://psycstar.substack.com/about Follow her at: Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/marywild/posts Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/psycstar/ In this conversation, Mary and I chat about the portrayal of mental health professionals in film and TV. We discuss the accuracy and impact of these portrayals, including the stigma around mental health and the challenges faced by therapists. We analyze scenes from films like "Spellbound," "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest," and "Girl, Interrupted," highlighting issues such as the misrepresentation of therapists, the impact of funding cuts on mental health services, and the societal pressures on identity and diagnosis. The conversation also touches upon the importance of making psychoanalytic concepts accessible and the role of therapists in empowering their patients. Mary Wild is the Freudian Cinephile – a pop psychoanalyst exploring film, philosophy, and the strange contours of modern life. She’s been hosting the Projections series of events at the Freud Museum London for more than a decade. Join her for whimsical cinematic interpretation and witty cultural critique. No one tops Mary for psychoanalytic interpretations of cinema! Stay tuned for her forthcoming book Psychoanalysing Horror Cinema (Routledge, 2025). https://www.routledge.com/Psychoanalysing-Horror-Cinema/Wild/p/book/9781032545097?srsltid=AfmBOorqpeove7e8PlV8GNwGRfi1mes8MEdFFvN_YsbtdSrZY8qpP7-b News and events: Coming up on Thursday, June 5th Mary is hosting her next online event PROJECTIONS: Lynchian Women.
