TEIXEIRA, Marcus do Rio. Humor and Delicacy. Cogito [online]. 2009, vol.10, pp. 40-45. ISSN 1519-9479.

In her movie Lost in Translation (2003) Sofia Coppola shows with accuracy the role of humor, in the Freudian sense, as defense against depression. The meeting with the object of love reinstalls the phallic instance, but it’s not enough to deal with the lack of sexual relationship.

Palabras clave : Humor; phallus; desire; depression; Other; love; Other joy; sexual relationship.
