Abstract

The Good Dinosaur Movie by Peter Sohn is the object of analysis in this study. The aims of this study are to analyze the anxiety and defense mechanism experienced by Arlo as the main character in The Good Dinosaur Movie based to psychoanalysis theory of Sigmund Freud. This study used qualitative method. The data were taken from the movie, such as dialogues, narratives, monologues and pictures. There were several steps taken to collect the data, such as watching the movie, reading the movie script, identifying the data, classifying the data, inventorying the data and reducing the data. There were two results found in this study. First, the study portrayed the anxieties of Arlo according to Sigmund Freud’s theory, which were reality anxiety and neurotic anxiety. The reality anxiety that experienced by Arlo is shown when Arlo was always anxious about situations that were frightening to him, because he was born differently as a timid dinosaur which is very different from his two brave and strong brothers. Even if the fear is from the little things though, especially when he was carried away by the river far from home, making his feel more anxious. He encounters something real in the wild and struggles to return home. The neurotic anxiety that experienced by Arlo is shown from his fear of being in the wild and not knowing the way to return home. In addition, the trauma of the death of his father always made him worry that the same thing would happen to him and his friend Spot. Second, this study portrayed the defense mechanisms according to Sigmund Freud’s theory; they were reaction formation, regression, rationalization, displacement, and sublimation. Keywords: Psychoanalysis, Anxiety, Defense Mechanism, Sigmund Freud, The Good Dinosaur Movie.
