David Cronenberg. “The Fly” or The Return to The Human Thing No-Human
Main Article Content
Abstract
From the gridiron of cinema, we can analyze the society and their integrants. Supported by the eyes of different filmmakers, we can perceive a fundamental point: how much different is the reality from the otherside of the screen?, is the viewer really sure about his ontologic condition of being? Issues that resound and pant in the film work of a specific director: David Cronenberg, in his filmography and in particular The Fly (Id. 1986) opens us the possibility to make reflections of long encouragement. If we question the notion of the philosophically "me" modern, their lining should also be questioned: their meat. We have tried to analyze the world to such a grade that more than to describe it to acquire a quasi perfectible knowledge, we have put it in the dissection iron to the way of frigid and stark meat. In a superficial sense it is thought that the New Meat postulates the human victory in the face of the death, like she already peeked Mary Shelley in its tragic Frankenstein; but not, before well, it not only seeks the coalition with all object in the space but with all moment in the time. It is a return to the mythical cronotopo: to their axis mundi.
