Freuds Last Session Blu-Ray
This gripping British drama from the producers of Gosford Park, The Bucket List, and Hacksaw Ridge is set on the brink of World War II and stars Oscar winner Sir Anthony Hopkins (The Silence of the Lambs, Nixon) and Emmy nominee Matthew Goode (The Imitation Game, Stoker) in the lead roles as two of the greatest thinkers of the 20th century who clash in the greatest question of all: Does God exist? It is September 1939 and England has declared war on Germany. The "father of psychoanalysis," Sigmund Freud, who recently fled the Nazi regime with his daughter, is visited by the formidable Oxford Don C.S. Lewis (The Chronicles of Narnia), a former atheist who is now a devout Christian. Freud's mortality and what Lewis believes comes after death fuel their discussion, as the two men confront and challenge each other on science, faith, love, and the human condition, and what separates—and possibly unites—the aspirations of the mind and the needs of the soul. Freud and Lewis' lives are woven together—past, present, and fantasy—in a narrative that breaks out of Freud's studies and delves into the deeper parts of both men's psyches. ★★★★ "Anthony Hopkins is impeccable" THE TIMES ★★★★ "Wonderfully acted and hugely entertaining" THE SUN "Impeccable performances from both Hopkins and Goode" LOUD AND CLEAR "Subtle and haunting" THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER
