A drama delves into a speculative meeting between Sigmund Freud and C.S. Lewis, adapted from a stage-play by Mark St Germain and inspired by Harvard psychiatrist Armand Nicholi's work.
Anthony Hopkins portrays a cantankerous Freud, while Matthew Goode plays a diffident Lewis, culminating in a clash of worldviews and psychological analysis.
The performance is elevated by Liv Lisa Fries as Anna Freud, providing a poignant narrative thread amidst the clash of the two historical figures.
The film, although not deeply profound, offers a compelling exploration of age-old debates on the brink of World War II, with robust performances capturing the essence of the characters.
