"Marlisa Santos's The Dark Mirror: Psychiatry and Film Noir is a significant addition to the body of work on film noir. Drawing together the form's often unremarked fascination with psychiatrists, psychoanalysis, asylums, and insanity, Santos builds on previous scholarship to help explain why the noir world's often mannered depictions of the real, the everyday, and the conscious mind so consistently---and disconcertingly---slip into the imagery of dreams, the abnormal, and the unconscious."---J. P. Telotte, author of Voices in the Dark: The Narrative Patterns of Film Noir
"The Dark Mirror provides a well-researched, convincing, and necessary return to a topic that much recent noir scholarship has repressed: the inextricable relation between film noir and psychiatry in all its forms. Marlisa Santos's breadth of knowledge about classic noir is staggering and her analyses of individual films---ranging from the celebrated to the truly obscure---illuminate film noir as a veritable catalog of psychopathology. Delusion, anxiety, hysteria, paranoia, memory loss, perversion... without these, there is no noir."---Hugh S. Manon, Clark University
The Dark Mirror: Psychiatry and Film Noir probes the meanings behind the depiction of psychiatry and psychological illness in film noir, and how these depictions contribute to an overall understanding about the noir cycle itself. In this study, Marlisa Santos examines the role that the popularization of psychoanalysis in the 1940s and 1950s, beginning with the use of psychoanalytic techniques to treat World War II soldiers, had on writers and filmmakers of noir. This popularization had a lasting effect on American culture, especially as ideas such as introspection and a morally neutral universe became status quo, and thereby became reflected in the noir series. The films analyzed in The Dark Mirror reveal a distillation of such ideas, bringing to the surface concerns and fears regarding the contradictory yet thrilling nature of psychoanalysis: the ability of a "science of the mind" to eliminate the mysteries of the human psyche and the simultaneous nature of this science to expose the fundamental unknowability of the human psyche. Indeed, Santos argues that noir itself might not have existed without the introduction of psychoanalysis into American culture.
