A Dangerous Method

A Russian woman arrives at a clinic in Austria to be treated for hysteria.  Her treatment contributes to some of the greatest strides in psychiatry, however unethical they might seem today.

This is a semi-interesting look at the history between Carl Jung, Sabina Speilrein, and Sigmund Freud, all great contributors in the field of psychiatry.  It's faults are that it is way too slow and drawn out.  In an attempt to create drama, there are lengthy scenes of conversation with voiced over narrative.

Meh. When it is all said and done this was not spectacular or really very entertaining.
