I watched part 1 of the Century of The Self documentary yesterday and it was both very interesting and very disturbing.
Are we really as controllable as this film suggests in part 1? Are we really as easily manipulated as this film suggests?
If you’re interested, this film is available for free on Google Video and documents the influence of Freud’s theories on politics and consumerism in the UK and US. I will write more once I finish parts 2-4.
