Abstract

People need to learn about the causes of internal conflict; people need to be aware of experiencing it. Unresolved inner conflict is a major cause of aggression, anger, apathy, and passivity. Emotional discomfort and self-sabotage are specifically related to internal conflict. This research aims to figure out the representation of internal conflict and the causes of internal conflict in Bruce Wayne's character in The Batman (2022) movie. This study applied a psychological approach from Sigmund Freud. The representation theory by Stuart Hall was applied to reveal the representation of internal conflict in the Bruce Wayne character. It was also supported by personality theory by Barbara Engler to determine the type of internal conflict and the theory of internal conflict by Peter Michaelson to determine the causes of internal conflict. This study applied a descriptive qualitative method. The data were a picture, dialogue, and narration, and the data source was from The Batman (2022) movie. The result reveals avoidance-avoidance conflict caused by Bruce's inability choosing to keep being Batman. He destroys himself or stops and leaves Gotham in ruin. Double approach-avoidance is caused by Bruce's inability to choose whether Riddler's method is right or wrong. The revelation from The Riddler causes approach avoidance. Bruce has two choices: not being Batman or continuing to be Batman to make his father proud.

Abstract

The aims of this research paper are to describe erotomania (De Clerambault’s Syndrome) as seen in the main character Arthur Fleck and its cause in the movie Joker (2019) by Todd Phillips. Here, the writer describes erotomania based on the characteristics based on Kelly’s theory (2005), which are seen in the selected scenes of the movie. Thus, in doing the research, the writer used the qualitative method. The data are taken from selected scenes from the movie and dialogues that are related to erotomania. In addition, the writer also used Metz’s semiotics of film theory (1992) in order to analyze the selected scenes that are correlated to erotomania. As a result of the findings, it indicates that the main character of Arthur Fleck in the movie Joker (2019) by Todd Phillips is possessing erotomania, or De Clerambault’s syndrome, which can be noticed from its five characteristics, namely: a delusional conviction of being in amorous communication with another person; the object is of higher rank; the sufferer believes that the object is the first to fall in love with him and the first to make advances; the object of the amorous delusions remains unchanged; and the sufferer thinks that they are not hallucinating. Moreover, the writer also found that the cause of Arthur’s erotomania is that he suffered a brain injury as a child. Keywords: erotomania, film semiotics, psychological approach
