Review of A Dangerous Method (2011) by Michael S — 11 Apr 2012
I have to say Cronenberg has done it again and disappointed me. He.
Could have done something better than that out of Christopher Hampton's adapted screenplay depicting the complicated relationship between Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung. The movie is a bit fragmented; the continuous thematic and narrative shift of focus has left me totally detached (I guess Hampton is to be blamed for this). Moreover, apart from the smart dialogues, the movie lacks dramatic intensity.
Only Viggo Mortensen's performance stood out, the rest were just.
Mundane. However, Howard Shore's music was astounding and breathed life into the scenes.
It wasn't such a bad experience after all. Maybe it's me who had high.
Expectations.
