Dangerous Method, A
David Cronenberg in his third collaboration with Viggo Mortensen (A History of Violence, Eastern Promises) directs him in a script by Oscar winning playwright Christopher Hampton based on Hampton's own play. Set on the eve of World War I, the story concerns the turbulent triangle between Sigmund Freud (Mortensen), his disciple and soon rival Carl Jung (Michael Fassbender), and Sabina Spielrein (Keira Knightley), a student and sometime mistress of Jung's who went on to study with Freud and according to Hampton's play, came between the two men. Played the New York and Toronto film festivals.
"Precise, lucid and thrillingly disciplined, this story of boundary-testing in the early days of psychoanalysis is brought to vivid life by the outstanding lead performances of Keira Knightley, Viggo Mortensen and Michael Fassbender." --Todd McCarthy, Hollywood Reporter
"It's a handsome and stimulating film, noteworthy more for its terrific acting and provocative ideas than for any kind of dark Cronenbergundian genius." --Andrew O'Hehir, Salon
