Abstract
This research aims to identify the stages of grief experienced by Theo, the
main character in the film Her (2013), as conceptualized by Elisabeth Kubler-Ross
and also how Theo goes through these stages.
This research used descriptive qualitative research methodology to examine
narrative complexity in the film Her (2013). Data collection involves a series of
steps: watching the film, reading film script, identifying data, classifying data, and
reducing data. The main data were taken from the film script, with dialogue and
monologue providing key evidence. Secondary data, including relevant journals,
articles, theses and e-books, supports and enriches primary data. The unit of
analysis focuses on phrases and sentences in dialogue, and naration providing a
comprehensive understanding of the narrative.
The findings from this research reveal that there are three stages that Theo
goes through, the main character in the film Her (2013), namely: denial, where he
still often remembers his intimacy with his ex-wife. Then depression, is when he
feels sad and lonely, but at this stage he falls in love with (AI) who names herself
Samantha who can fill his loneliness. In psychological terms, falling in love with
non-humans or inanimate objects is called objectophilia. In the end, after Samantha
left due to the mass withdrawal of AI from the developer, he finally reached the
acceptance stage, when he realized that he still had real love, and the form of
acceptance that Theo showed was by writing a farewell letter to his ex-wife,
Catherine.
Keywords: five stages of grief, objectophilia, AI, Kubler-Ross, Merit
Brogaard.
