Two great Japanese actresses vividly embody anima qualities of compassion and wisdom in two great classic Japanese films from the 1950s as seen in this three-minute video tribute: http://youtube.com/watch?v=0O6tdZucyVc
Both “Twenty-Four Eyes” (1954, 2’ 36”, K. Kinoshita) and “Tokyo Story” (1953, 2’ 16”, Y. Ozu) employ transcendental style in film (Paul Schrader, 1972). Film clips will encourage participants’ contemplative, mindful viewing/processing to experience directly the anima qualities of compassion and wisdom from a distinctly Japanese aesthetic perspective rooted in Japanese Buddhism. Going beyond anima symbolized by the Virgin Mary and Sophia, these films reinforce the concept of anima as a universal archetype and not simply a Western one.
Based on C. G. Jung’s concept of anima as “the archetype of the feminine” and “the archetype of life,” James Hillman (1973) concluded that “anima development has thus become a major therapeutic tenet in the minds of many analytical psychologists.” Film viewing provides a way for anima development in that Beebe (1992) describes the anima in film as characters/actresses with “unusual radiance,” “unusual capacity for life or life force energy,” “a desire to make emotional connection as the main concern of the character,” and “who exert a protective and often therapeutic effect on someone else,” among other qualities.
