A Dangerous Method
Experimenting with a bold new method of treating mental illness, Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung (Michael Fassbender) engages madhouse patient Sabina Spielrein (Keira Knightley) in a series of focused conversations. This seemingly successful "talking cure" brings Jung into the company of the man who inspired it, Sigmund Freud (Viggo Mortensen), which results in a triangle of psychological complexities and sexual temptations. David Cronenberg's provocative period drama co-stars Vincent Cassel, Sarah Gadon.
