Abstract
Blue In The Face (Paul Auster, Wayne Wang, Harvey Wang, 1995) is a movie which tells the story of collective identities, belongingness and, by setting up socialisation, the struggle of people living in Brooklyn under tough and strict determinist modernisation. The movie, through using a modernist approach and humour in filmic images and focusing upon Brooklyn and its inhabitants, shows the meaning of living in a city like our home. This study, by using this movie, analyses the significance of gradually disappearing socialisation and communication amongst people. The movie makes us reflect upon how to construct a collective identity with all the differences through appropriating life worlds, and with this dimension, remains up-to-date.
