Abstract: The Legend of 1900, a film miracle created by Italian director Giuseppe Tornatore in 1999, has provoked people to contemplate deeply about modern civilization. The main character, 1900, a child abandoned on a giant ship at sea and never setting foot on land, became a legendary pianist with a natural gift, but his death was silent and anonymous. Though a great deal of research has been done regarding this film, the perspective of psychology is an unknown domain. Therefore, based on Jacques Lacan's Tripartite Register of the subject, in this essay, I assumed that 1900's spiritual world can be divided into the imaginary register of the sea, the symbolic register of the land, and the real register of the invisible to explore the 1900’s self. 1900's
