confusing

This movie is a story about Jung and Freud falling in love and killing each other~ It is basically the same as what the teacher in the counseling class told.
The heroine KK is very beautiful. Among the screen images she has created, I am most impressed by Elizabeth in "Pride and Prejudice", followed by the rebellious daughter of the Governor in "Pirates of the Caribbean", but to be honest, her acting skills There is still room for improvement. Although there is so much taste in playing a patient in this movie, I always feel that it is a little bit worse, and I can't tell which one is. And her terrifying chin every time she gets sick, I always worry that it will fall off. . .
The transference and counter-transference in the film, I am very confused. Jung violated the principles of therapy and had an undeserved affection for the patient beyond the therapeutic relationship. In today's view, it is extremely unprofessional performance. Of course, at the time, that relationship definitely acted as a catalyst for his disengagement from Freud's influence and his own way. The relationship between the Jung couple, the Freud couple, and the content of the exchanges between them are not very clear to me. They are somewhat obscure, and for my own sake, they are not sharp and accurate enough.
I don't really like the rhythm of the movie, and I feel that the ending is a bit rushed. Scene transitions and story development lack foreshadowing and elaboration, and are rather blunt. Maybe it's too realistic.

    The script of "Christopher Hampton" still maintains the worldview of each of his previous costume films, but unfortunately, "David Cronenberg" who collaborated with him for the first time could not grasp the spirit of the script, thus proving that costume films are still the best of "Cronenberg". Weak link~!

    The heroine's performance is a little too aggressive... Really good plot. The process by which two psychologists parted ways. But I also want to ask... Do people who study psychology fucking like cheating with patients? All have schizophrenia symptoms! Forget it, leave him alone...

A Dangerous Method quotes

  • Carl Jung: I can only tell you that she's rather disorganized, emotionally generous, and exceptionally idealistic.

    Sigmund Freud: Well, perhaps it's a Russian thing.

  • Sigmund Freud: I have simply opened a door. It's for the young men like yourself to walk through it. I'm sure you have many more doors to open for us. Of course, there's the added difficulty, more ammunition for our enemies, that all of us here in Vienna, in our psychoanalytical circle, are Jews.

    Carl Jung: I don't see what difference that makes.

    Sigmund Freud: That, if I may say so, is an exquisitely Protestant remark.
