I respect S Freud as an early but pioneering psychologist, and I very much admire C.
Lewis as a humanist and fiction writer
S. Whether this meeting between Freud and Lewis really happened doesn't matter so much, I think. What matters is that it's a fascinating concept to imagine the two men debating science vs religion, and this film does a very decent job of portraying this discussion.While I wouldn't go so far as to call this the most moving film I've ever seen – I think Shadowlands for example was far more moving and The Soul Keeper ( a film about Jung and his female patient ) was more intriguing – I genuinely found Freud's Last Session to be philosophically poignant.
The cinematography and acting are decent
The discussions between Freud and Lewis are intellectually sound and do ask those age old questions, such as if God is good, why is there suffering? A question I guess we all grapple with in one way or another.This film reminded me a bit of In Lambeth the other play about a fictional meeting between Thomas Paine and William Blake which, while quite different, approached the two sides of a philosophical debate in a similarly genuine and interesting manner.Ultimately, there is quite a good amount of wisdom and intellectual content in Freud's Last Session and for that I found it fun, mildly moving and worthwhile. If you like psychology, philosophy and films that are really just play's on screen, then I hope you'll enjoy this.
