A Dangerous Method
So the movie could perhaps be described as "the beginning of psychoanalysis with patient n. 1".
Why the "talking cure" can turn into a "dangerous method". Therefore, the film delivers exactly what it promises, and I found it well made and rather interesting.
Ms. Knightley’s facial expressions and bodily contortions seem deliberately drawn from the 19th-century iconography of hysteria. But if she is a revenant from an age before Prozac, Sabina is also an uncannily modern spirit, whose torments are as recognizable as her symptoms are outlandish. And Jung, as he gropes after ultimate meanings and obscure symbols, is surely one of us, an ambivalent inhabitant of the country Freud discovered. “A Dangerous Method” is so strange and unnerving precisely because the world it depicts is, for better and for worse, the only one we know.
