Jung & Film Online | Late Night

You are warmly invited to our  Jung and Film evening on Friday evening 19 March: Late Night (Run Time: 1H 42Min). This film is the story of Katherine Newbury (Emma Thompson), an authoritarian unrelated late-night talk show host with an extensive career in comedy, whose show’s ratings have been falling over the past decade. When Katherine learns that she is about to be fired she hires Molly Patel (Mindy Kaling), mainly because she is a Native-American woman while all remaining writers are white men. Molly embodies the archetypes of the trickster and the fool and she helps to rescue the show. The topic of vulgar and misogynistic humour by another presenter is explored. Betrayal and exposure of Katherine’s past indiscretion is revealed but Katherine confronts her past, takes responsibility for her misstep, and apologises on national television thus redeeming herself. In the process she undergoes an aspect of what Jung termed individuation and ends up a warmer more related individual. Ultimately, the show’s team is diversified, and it becomes more successful than ever. Online Participation Format This movie is available on Netflix, if you wish to watch the movie beforehand. We will be screening this movie via Zoom as well, for those who wish to see it within the group. We will start the screening at 18h00 (6pm).
