The article is willing to stress the importance of movies vision for a psychoanalytic work analyzing some film psychology theories and some historical data. Cinema born as an entertainment source soon becomes art thanks to the creation of direction and editing, introducing psychological mechanisms in his language. In this regard it comes useful to retrace some considerations that pull over movies to the dream, both depositaries of a share of unconscious and unexplained. Besides the dream aspect filmmaking is usually taken in consideration as a treatment pathway, in a double mirror between “director/viewer” and “analyst/patient”. I take as an example the Fellini’s film “8 ½”, giving some historical facts that confirm this masterpiece as a representation of an inner travel. I end with some considerations on the importance in clinical work of submerging in a critic perspective of movies.
Keywords: filmmaking, psychology of film, dream, treatment pathway, unconscious mechanisms in art, seeing movies
