David Lynch's "Blue Velvet" and Personal Identity

Abstract: This 10 page report discusses David Lynch's 1986 film "Blue Velvet" and how it demonstrates how everybody lives in a society where, either consciously or unconsciously, we exist in relation to (and within the boundaries of) the reigning - or dominant - ideology. This "manner of thinking" is the manner of those with the loudest voice, the larger vote, the fatter bank-account, the better education, and the bigger church. That dominant ideology is what then governs personal identity and what is and is not "normal." Bibliography lists 5 sources.
