And sometimes it\u2019s a loaded symbol in an imagined conversation between world-famous \u201csex doc\u201d Sigmund Freud (played by Anthony Hopkins, in irritable curmudgeon mode) and converted atheist C.S. Lewis (Matthew Goode, looking slightly worse for wear).<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    In the stage play turned only-slightly-less-stagey film, \u201cFreud\u2019s Last Session,\u201d these two titans of 20th century thought meet at the psychoanalyst\u2019s London home in early September 1939 to discuss God, father figures (both spiritual and biological) and, of course, sex. Freud famously had a way of making everything about sex, and once he lights his cigar \u2014 a prop which Freud treats every bit as portentously as one might Chekhov\u2019s proverbial gun \u2014 the subject effectively chases out their more gripping disagreement over faith.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Expanding only slightly upon the stuffiness of his tweedy 2015 biopic, \u201cThe Man Who Knew Infinity,\u201d director Matthew Brown has taken the play by Mark St. Germain and whittled away a bit of the talk (thereby making room for formative memories from their respective childhoods). Trouble is, where a fictional t\u00eate-\u00e0-t\u00eate between Freud and Lewis is concerned, sparkling talk is precisely what audiences have paid to experience.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    In \u201cThe Two Popes\u201d \u2014 another Hopkins two-hander \u2014 the ping-ponging of Big Ideas proved perfectly electrifying, whereas here, Freud\u2019s on offense for most of the movie, while Lewis is too polite to take the bait. As a result, this feels less like a racket sport than juggling, as Brown introduces flashbacks and other distractions (including a few impressive trench-warfare scenes from Lewis\u2019 military service), repeatedly cutting away to whatever Freud\u2019s daughter Anna might be doing at just the moment he\u2019s established some momentum between these two minds.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    The movie takes the liberty of luring Lewis to Freud\u2019s inner sanctum, then puts the psychoanalyst on his own chaise longue, as an advanced case of mouth cancer has him reaching for the morphine every few minutes \u2014 either that or gazing upon the bright orange pill with which he plans to commit suicide. (In one of the literate <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">script<\/a>\u2019s more poetic conceits, the film imagines that Freud passed the same pill to his daughter when she was detained by Nazi officers.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Few people have had a greater impact on the way we think about the way we think than Freud, and yet, the average person doesn\u2019t know nearly as much about the man\u2019s own biography. Do they know how and when he died, for instance? Are they aware that the man who identified the Oedipus Complex had such a complex and codependent relationship with his own daughter? Do they know that Anna was a lesbian, as well as a noted psychoanalyst?<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    These details, all fascinating, are packed into a film which really ought to have remained a focused dialogue between Freud and Lewis. The latter actually takes Freud\u2019s dog, Jofi, out for a walk at one point so the movie can multitask a few of its other threads. Toward the end, as the God-focused debate reaches something of a stalemate, the subplot about Anna and her fixation on father Sigmund (described here as \u201cattachment disorder\u201d) takes over, adding a sense of closure.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    After all, it\u2019s not as if Freud is going to convince Lewis (whom he likely never met in real life) to abandon Christianity, any more than Lewis is likely to convert Freud just before his death. The film takes neither side, respecting both men\u2019s beliefs and giving them each elegantly worded arguments to support their positions. \u201cWe\u2019ve never matured enough to overcome the terror of being in the dark,\u201d Freud argues, implying that mankind\u2019s belief in God reduces to a fear of death \u2014 an end he awaits with apparent relief, given the rise of Adolf Hitler reflected all around (on the radio and via air-raid drills).<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    In a nice touch, the threat of a German bombing forces Freud and Lewis to huddle together in a nearby church. Once the coast is clear, Freud emerges to admire the stained glass windows, the way he might primitive cave paintings. Back at home, his study is crowded with artifacts of various world religions, which Lewis finds ironic. \u201cI\u2019m a passionate disbeliever who\u2019s obsessed with belief,\u201d Freud explains. But the movie doesn\u2019t take so clear a position, honoring Lewis\u2019 own spiritual journey, to the point that it re-creates his conversion (the actual epiphany so abrupt as to be almost laughable).<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    So many <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">movies<\/a> are either mindless or completely disinterested with engaging the intellect of their audiences that \u201cFreud\u2019s Last Session\u201d offers a welcome bit of brain stimulation \u2014 but does far less for the soul. The original play was St. Germain\u2019s attempt to synthesize ideas from a series of Harvard lectures on the two thinkers (amusingly enough, between this and 1993\u2019s superior \u201cShadowlands,\u201d Hopkins has now played both men at different points in his career). Still, it feels unfair to pit them against one another, and the movie doesn\u2019t dare put anything too incendiary into either of their mouths \u2014 beyond a lit cigar, of course.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
