Got Academy is launching a new series of psychology in movies, and we kick things off with The Father Archetype by Carl Jung and Jungian psychology - as depicted in movies. And Game of Thrones. As we're nearing the end of Game of Thrones season 8, it's as good a time as any to expand our horizon. Gil Kidron and Noga Ariel Galor break down some of the most iconic characters that fit the Father Archetype, such as Tywin Lannister, Mufasa, Darth Vader, Mister Miyagi, Geppetto, Christof from The Truman Show and more.
