Abstract

Since a filmic enunciation does not have the objective of enunciating itself narratively, the specular relations that appear in the course of This obscure object of desire (1977) directed by Luis Buñuel, allow the production of an enunciative instance to generate its creature, the enunciation. By decomposing, selecting and articulating parts of the film enunciation, this study aims at evaluating the way the narrative is articulated and observing the changes in point of view in the focalization stream. In its evolutive marks, the fiduciary waiting leads the opposition between promisse and contract in order to establish a verediction process between enunciator and enunciation poles. Moreover, the analysis investigates metaphors and processes of condensation and dislocation of oniric manifestations when present in the relations between the syntax of fragments of the enunciation and the syntax of the dream, to turn the eyes towards passions, in the last analysis. Keywords: Cinematographic Discourse. Focalization. Enunciation. Metaphor. Dream and Passions.
