Keira Knightley's performance is impeccable, including many details, but she seems to be challenging herself, including Michael Fassbender and Sarah Gadon, these actors seem to have the same heart as this film, Especially Sarah Gadon's perfect performance of Jung's wife's psychological state, it's hardly like playing a role, but expressing her true self. And Viggo Mortensen's reappearance of Freud cannot be said to be superior, unless Freud's psychological state at the time was not the rumored authoritative dispersion, and after the test of "The Road", it is clear that Viggo Mortensen Tessen is well-deserved, but it can only be said that he does not have a good grasp of the film. Best of all is Fassbender, whose presentation of Jung's humble, noble personality is remarkably smooth.
The film takes Sabina as the axis, and tells about the confrontation between Jung and Freud, the two major schools of psychology, and the most exciting part is the face-to-face and letter discussions between Jung and Freud. Before that, the description of the original impulse was in full swing. Whether it was deliberately arranged or not is unknown. At least the audience changed from bystander to introspection through this node. As for the description of the primitive impulse afterward, it should be the myth of Jung and Freud's school of psychology, or the myth of the contradiction between nature and reason. What is certain, though, is that Otto Gross has no such pain.
In the film, there is not much about Jung's thinking about "spirit" and the more important origin. I don't know if this is one of the absolute reasons for Jung's disobedience. The background of the birth of Freud's theory is clear and coherent. , which can also better explain why Freud is eager to control others and seek successors; most importantly, the discussion of sexuality has an unexpected depth because it touches the deep field of psychology, making it Far from the spiritual pursuit of the lower level, it is impossible to say which is higher or lower. After all, this is the big theme, just as the film discusses:
First, whether the sublime and purity really come from sin, not because of relative existence, but Is it "from" sin?
Second, whether releasing one’s nature is equivalent to “pure” psychology. Obviously, we are still doing it at present, and the effect is very good. For example, Harvard University’s famous public class “Happiness” is to release oneself and seek oneself.
Third, whether: The perfect state can only be reached through the collision of sins, that is, the perfect state may be the energy generated by the confrontation between two dark and opposite states, that is, the new life is reached from sin. And if so, would the collision of Jung's and Freud's imperfect doctrines lead to a more perfect nascent school?
Even Jung himself was deeply at odds with nature and reason until the end of his life. Might as well end with the words of Otto Gross: "Pleasure is simple until we complicate it, which my father calls maturity and I call surrender."
