This thesis aims to reflect on three different contemporary films: Mulholland Drive (David Lynch, 2001), Elephant (Gus Van Sant, 2003) and Tropical Malady (Apichatpong Weerasethakul, 2004), based on the figure of Double. Considering the film as a privileged space where subjectivity can be elaborated between characters and spectatorship and adopting a heuristic initiative founded on some notions deriving of psychoanalysis and anthropology fields, we intend to associate the singularity of each of these narratives to a specific psychic investment to the spectator considered as a desiring subject. Enhancing the multiple ways that the sight can be challenged in these movies, we investigate how desire operates trough these narratives employing the double as an asset. As the three modulations of Double, we selected the seduction as the figure that main represents Tropical Malady, the wander for Elephant and the fantasy for Mulholland Drive.
