<i>Boogie Nights</i>, pornografia, omissão histórica, repressão psíquicaRésumé
Primorosamente filmado em estilo altmaniano e baseado nas cenas dos filmes de Martin Scorsese e Quentin Tarantino, Boogie Nights – Prazer sem limites continua até hoje a ser proclamado um ultramoderno e ousado olhar sobre a chamada Idade de Ouro do cenário da pornografia da década de 1970. Neste ensaio, procuro documentar o que esse filme deixa de fora quanto ao registro histórico e mostrar como a supressão histórica se relaciona com a repressão psíquica. Em vez de história, nos apresenta melodrama. Em vez de um documento histórico, Boogie Nights nos proporciona, novamente, Édipo. Como a maioria das elegias, os aspectos negativos ou indesejáveis do sujeito são minimizados ou omitidos, embora eles voltem para assombrar o texto.
