The title is just the first of many startling asides,
observations and insights that fill this guide to Hollywood on the
Lacanian psychoanalyst 's couch.
Zizek introduces the ideas of Jacques Lacan through the medium
of American film, taking his examples from over 100 years of
cinema, from Charlie Chaplin to The Matrix and referencing along
the way such figures as Lenin and Hegel, Michel Foucault and Jesus
Christ.
Enjoy Your Symptom! is a thrilling guide to cinema and
psychoanalysis from a thinker who is perhaps the last standing
giant of cultural theory in the twenty-first century.
