“According to Freud”, dir. Matt Brown (2023)
The subject of the film does not delve into the twists and turns of history and psychoanalysis, but it is not devoid of depth and intrigue. The action takes place in London in the 1930s, when the Nazis invaded Poland, marking the beginning of World War II. In his final session before his death, the father of psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud (Anthony Hopkins), meets with Chronicles of Narnia author Clive S. Lewis (Matthew Goode) to discuss the existence of God. The film is adapted from the play “Freud’s Last Session” by screenwriter Mark Jermain.
