A Dangerous Method
Closes Thursday, February 9
1hr 39mins // directed by:David Cronenberg // featuring:Michael Fassbender, Keira Knightley and Viggo Mortensen
On the eve of World War I, Zurich and Vienna are the setting for a dark tale of sexual and intellectual discovery.
Drawn from true-life events, A Dangerous Method takes a glimpse into the turbulent relationships between fledgling psychiatrist Carl Jung (Michael Fassbender), his mentor Sigmund Freud (Viggo Mortensen) and Sabina Spielrein (Keira Knightley), the troubled but beautiful young woman who comes between them. Into the mix comes Otto Gross, a debauched patient who is determined to push the boundaries.
In this exploration of sensuality, ambition and deceit set the scene for the pivotal moment when Jung, Freud and Sabina come together and split apart, forever changing the face of modern thought.
A Dangerous Method was directed by David Cronenberg (Eastern Promises, A History of Violence, Crash) from a screenplay by Academy Award winning writer Christopher Hampton (Atonement, Dangerous Liaisons), who adapted his own stage play The Talking Cure for the screen.
The New York Times
"Full of ideas about sexuality - some quite provocative, even a century after their first articulation - but it also recognizes and communicates the erotic power of ideas." - A.O. Scott
The Boston Globe
"This is the best thing (Viggo) Mortensen's ever done." - Wesley Morris
