“A Dangerous Method” (movie)
There is a fairly recent movie, released in 2011, about the relationship between Freud and Jung, and how that influenced the development of psychoanalysis. The focus is on the treatment of a young woman with “hysteria” first by Jung and then by Freud. While the movie is a historical drama rather than a formal documentary, and every detail may not be accurate, the overall content is fairly close to current scholarly views of the events depicted.
The movie can be streamed from our CC course page (from the “Films” link at the top of the page). Or, you can watch it streamed from Netflix or Amazon, if you have those services. Or you can buy or borrow the DVD.
