Morning AA
Yesterday was generally a good day, I went to see A Dangerous Method with a friend. The film it's self was a bit of a disappointment. The actors all did well, Kira Knightly especially, although I usually cannot stand her, but the script was just too weak.

It's a real shame, because the early days of psychiatry are fascinating material and both Freud and Jung are characters worthy of films in them selves but it just lacked depth. The oddities and failings of both Freud and Jung were mostly glossed over, there was no real feeling of how revolutionary their work was and the love story was just not very credible, it lacked believable passion.

I suppose it was not a bad film for a mass market, but I expected more of Cronenberg and there was so much more that could have been done.

I rather liked the first two films Cronenberg did with Mortensen
So I'll likely give this one a try too, just not anytime soon.

I though A History of Violence very good.
To be clear this was not bad, but so far from what it could and should have been.

Have you seen Eastern Promises?
