"A Dangerous Method" is specially selected for Cronenberg this time! I like his photography so much... Both the composition and the tone are incredibly beautiful, the lines are clean, the scenery is not redundant, all the scenes where the story takes place are also ingeniously arranged, the light, shadow and wind are just right, so pleasing to the eye that I would even start from a boring girl. Pulled away from the Lord.
Biographical films, about the acquaintance and breakup of Freud and Jung, the conflict, fusion, and disagreement between the two male protagonists, Fasha and Viggo, are well represented. That's right, the only person who is criticized may be the heroine kk... I don't intend to criticize Kate's appearance, but the acting is a bit too deliberate, schizophrenia seems a little too difficult for actresses, and the line between normal and crazy is not clear at all, Very worried about the hysteria in each scene that makes people feel a little tired.
But then again, this one continues the theme that Cronenberg brought us to think about. This time, it is about human sexuality, which is undoubtedly both immoral and shocking in that historical era. Such a dialogue shows the essential difference between Jung and Freud, and how people should accept authority , and away from authority, how to establish authority and how to deconstruct it, this may be a question that all academic practitioners should think about.
The differences between the two may be more due to their own experience and class. Jung is much more graceful than Freud. His various opinions and attitudes, because of his high status based on a lot of money, always seem to be more euphemistic and less radical than Freud, but he tends to The exploration of mysticism seems to be even more deviant. This divergence is very interesting.
about love. This topic seems very small here. It seems that this group of people who are full of wisdom about life and the world seems to have a hard time seeing their attitude towards love. If they confirm their personal feelings with an academic point of view, it will be vulgar and not honest enough. Their lives are not as "deviant" as their thinking, and their deliberate demarcation and self-emphasis, which instead make their normal human behavior, become a source of stigma. They reflect on life and rebel against tradition, which is jaw-dropping, but perhaps their struggles are worse than the masses.
Not to mention religion and race. These two topics don't show much in this film, but they are undoubtedly one of the root causes of the disagreement between Freud and Jung. In an era like the early 20th century, when we all knew about World War I and World War II, Jung's dream about the blood in the Alps was actually very well explained...
At the end, I want to mention my favorite lines. The lines of this movie are actually quite well written, and the translation I read is also very good. After many years of confusion, Jung met Sabina, who was looking for a new life. He looked at her with wistful tenderness and could finally say: "My love for you is the most important thing in my life. Love is the most important thing in my life. No bad or worse, make me understand who l am." "Sometimes you have to do something unforgivable, just be able to go on living. Sometimes you have to do the unforgivable just to survive."
