Exploring Kantian Dimensions and the Uncanny in 'Blue Velvet'
The chapter delves into the Kantian dimension in the film 'Blue Velvet', discussing appearances versus the thing in itself and how Kant's idea of cognition relates to experiencing appearances. The analysis includes a scene breakdown, language differences in expressing thought, and inner passivity. The conversation also transitions to the uncanny, comparing it with sublimation and discussing the influence of Hegel and Lacan on contemporary phenomena.
