Abstract

Communication within the family plays a vital role in individuals' social development and interpersonal communication skills. As the first social environment of individuals, the family shapes early communication skills which are then reflected in broader social relationships. The types of relationships that an individual forms from birth have a positive or negative impact on his/her relationships in later life. In this context, the impact of narcissism on individuals is portrayed as destructive in the movie analysed. It is obvious that the manipulated party struggles to leave the relationship but begins to recover after various psychological battles. The movie "Mon Roi" powerfully reveals the impact of narcissism on couples and their lives. This study aims to reveal the types of manipulation individuals experience in relationships affected by narcissism. Mon Roi, a film directed by Maïwenn, delves deeply into the destructive effects of narcissism on interpersonal relationships. The film centres on Tony and his complex, toxic relationship with Georgio. While Georgio initially attracts Tony with his charismatic and charming personality, he gradually undermines the relationship through his narcissistic behaviour. Georgio's manipulative behaviour reduces Tony's confidence and makes him emotionally dependent. While the film illustrates the adverse effects of narcissism on individuals’ psychological health of, it also highlights Tony's transformation during rehabilitation and his efforts to rediscover himself. In this context, the character developments in the movie allow the audience experience the destructiveness of narcissistic relationships and the challenges of recovery. In conclusion, Mon Roi stands out as a production that effectively reflects the impact of narcissism on individuals and the dynamics of toxic relationships. The movie prompts the audience to reflect on the complexity of love and the journey of personal healing.

Özet

Aile içi iletişim, bireylerin sosyal gelişiminde ve kişilerarası iletişim becerilerinde önemli bir rol oynamaktadır. Aile, bireylerin ilk sosyal ortamını oluşturmakta ve burada edinilen iletişim becerileri, daha geniş sosyal ilişkilere yansımaktadır. Bireyin doğumuyla birlikte kurmuş olduğu ilişki türleri ilerleyen yaşamındaki ilişkileri üzerinde olumlu ya da olumsuz etkiye maruz kalmaktadır. Bu bağlamda incelenen film çerçevesinde narsizmin bireyler üzerindeki etkisi yıkıcı olarak görülmektedir. Manipülasyona uğrayan tarafın ilişkiden ayrılmakta zorlandığı görülmektedir. Çeşitli psikolojik savaşlar sonrasında iyileşmeye başladığı anlaşılmaktadır. “Mon Roi” filminde narsizmin, çiftler ve onların hayatlarının üzerindeki tesirini etkileyici bir şekilde ortaya koyulmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, bireylerin, narsisizmin etkisi ile ilişkilerdeki maruz kaldıkları manipülasyonun çeşitlerini ortaya koymaktır. Mon Roi, Maïwenn tarafından yönetilen bir film olup, narsisizmin bireyler arası ilişkilerdeki yıkıcı etkilerini derinlemesine ele almaktadır. Film, Tony adlı karakterin, Georgio ile olan karmaşık ve toksik ilişkisini merkezine almaktadır. Georgio, karizmatik ve çekici bir kişilik sergileyerek Tony’yi kendine çekerken, zamanla narsistik davranışlarıyla bu ilişkiyi zorlaştırmaktadır. Georgio’nun manipülatif tavırları, Tony’nin kendine olan güvenini azaltmakta ve onu duygusal olarak bağımlı hale getirmektedir. Film, narsisizmin, bireylerin psikolojik sağlığı üzerindeki olumsuz etkilerini gösterirken, Tony’nin rehabilitasyon sürecinde yaşadığı dönüşümü ve kendini yeniden keşfetme çabasını da vurgulamaktadır. Bu bağlamda, filmdeki karakter gelişimleri, izleyiciye narsistik ilişkilerin yıkıcılığını ve kurtulmanın zorluklarını deneyimletmektedir. Sonuç olarak, Mon Roi, narsisizmin bireyler üzerindeki etkilerini ve toksik ilişkilerin dinamiklerini başarılı bir şekilde yansıtan bir yapım olarak dikkat çekmektedir. Film, izleyiciyi aşkın karmaşıklığı ve bireysel iyileşme süreci üzerine düşündürmektedir.
