28. 'A Dangerous Method'
Sony Pictures Classics
All cerebral and a little kinky, David Cronenberg's latest film is an exercise in psychological discussion and analysis. Not content to paint the surface strokes of the lives of psychotherapy fathers Carl Jung and Sigmund Freud, Cronenberg digs deeper into the mens' psyches and motivations, including the windstorm that was patient/guinea pig/rumored lover Sabina Spielrein. Keira Knightley, Michael Fassbender and Viggo Mortensen are all in their element here as tortured souls on the path to enlightenment. -- C.J.
