Tim Burton: The Monster and the Crowd by Helena Bassil-Morozow

Tim Burton: The Monster and the Crowd by Helena Bassil-Morozow

This book employs Jungian and post-Jungian concepts of unconscious mental processes along with film semiotics, analysis of narrative devices and cinematic history; to explore the reworking of myth and fairytale in Burton's gothic fantasy world.

"Brilliantly confirms what we have been suspecting all along – that film studies drawing on Jungian psychology is a genuine advance, here to stay, and capable of extending itself across several generations of authorsHelena Bassil-Morozow approaches the key contemporary question of the relations between individual and crowd via a creative intermingling of a profound engagement with Burton's films and Jung's idea of individuation. The monster we meet in book and film sets off something massive in everyone – that's what this level of writing about the archetypal can do." - Andrew Samuels, University of Essex, UK

Helena Bassil-Morozow has been teaching Film, Drama and Literature in various further education institutions and in private practice for over five years.
