WOODY ALLEN Y EL PSICOANÁLISIS. MATCH POINT, ENTRE EL AZAR Y LA PERVERSIÓN

Abstract

This study explores the intimate relationship between director Woody Allen and psychoanalysis over time in his films. The second part analyzes the film called "Match Point" (2005) – “The provocation” in Latin America. The approximation to the psychic structure of its protagonist, Chris Wilton, is allowed to be glimpsed, hypothesizing the perverse subject who is directed in tune with his ways of enjoying, covering the symbolic castration, and preventing his inscription in desire and love with the Other. Finally, the dimensions of the crime in the perverse of the film are analyzed, and the analogy of the director of the film with Raskolnikov, protagonist of the book "Crime and Punishment", by Dostoevsky, is brought up, demarcating some structural differences between the two murders and their modus operandi, according to neurosis and perversion.
