Don't be put off seeing this film! Knightley IS painful to watch (see previous reviews), but that makes what happens all the more interesting - and real.
Jung comes under the microscope here, while Freud gets off very lightly - but there is a serious engagement with the early days of psychoanalysis - its dangers and its power.
There is a lot of story to fit into one film and events sometimes shift abruptly, but the film as a whole is convincing, with some excellent dialogue.
No doubt it will reverberate around Oxford's consulting rooms for some time to come.
