    Too Old for Sexual Objectification: Jennifer Melfi as Psychopathic Analyst

    Written by Jazz Vazquez

    Narrated by Carol Grace Anderson

    ()

    About this audiobook

    Author Jazz Vazquez examines the case of the aging actor who plays the role of a washed-up psychoanalyst. Is Jennifer Melfi, the psychoanalyst for mafia boss Tony Soprano, just a bitter, sour former beauty, or does she herself become a psychopath? Lorraine Bracco’s acting is at its worst as she plays the part of the sex-starved analyst who doesn’t provide any remnant of genuine or productive analysis for her client.

    Vazquez takes a look at the rape experienced by Melfi on The Sopranos. How does the portrayal of a middle-aged woman’s rape mirror society’s contempt for former beauties who age into empty husks no longer worthy of sexual objectification?
