      abstract = {From the flickering images of the earliest silent films to  today's billion-dollar blockbusters, films have captivated  the public's eyes, hearts, and psyches. Reflecting - and  often creating - the tenor of their times, they combine  layers of symbolic and metaphorical images to make a  stronger internal impact on their viewers than the still  image or the printed word. The compelling pages of Film,  Television and the Psychology of the Social Dream  illuminate the profound emotional processes involved as  films inform and transform our unconscious and conscious  minds. Drawing on original and classic scholarship in its  field, this provocative volume analyzes these interactions  through a wide array of influential films, including  pioneering German expressionist works, the Star Trek cycle,  and The Godfather. Movies' transformative role in molding  philosophies and ethics is shown as the larger meanings of  public heroes, stars, fears, and desires evolve, and as  salient genres embody more than simply a good story. But  despite this century of evolution, the authors assert, one  thing remains constant: the critical place of film in  communicating individual dreams as well as the shared  dreams of a society.},
