(light orchestral music) - [Dr. Freud] Professor Lewis, - Dr. Freud. - I'd given you up for lost. (dog barks) Jofi is my personal assistant. - Really? Well, if a patient is calm, Jofi always stretches out at my feet. But if a patient is agitated, Jofi stands at my side. (Jofi growls) - What shall I make of his running away the sight of me? - Ah, well, he's also a fanatic about punctuality. (dramatic orchestral music) - [Prof. Lewis] Well, you have a wonderful home. - [Dr. Freud] My daughter Anna
, tried her best to replicate our home in Vienna. Forgive me, but why would you come here to see me if you disagree so passionately with my views? To make you realize that you are wrong. (Dr. Freud laughs) - [Dr. Freud] Well done! Good! (dramatic orchestral music) - [Prof. Lewis] You've insisted all your life that the very concept of God is ludicrous. - [Dr. Freud] Yes. Why someone of your supreme intellect would suddenly abandon truth and then embrace a ludicrous dream, an insidious lie? - Well
, I wholeheartedly disagree. - [Dr. Freud] Well, of course you disagree. You have to disagree. Otherwise, the entire structure of your childish faith would collapse into rubble. - [Prof. Lewis] Why does religion make room for science? But science refuses to make room for religion? - Oh, please, you're breaking my heart. 'Cause they hide behind their ignorance. You hide behind your ignorance! - I think that you are afraid to feel emotions at all. - Is that your final diagnosis? Fascinating. - I d
on't know. - You don't know? Well, finally, finally, finally, we are making progress. (dramatic orchestral music) - [Prof. Lewis] You lie to yourself, thinking that you can control death the way you control your world and your daughter. - [Dr. Freud] Anna's dedicated to the science. - [Prof. Lewis] Is she seeing someone? - [Dr. Freud] She has no time for relationships. - I'm worried about my father. He has no one. - There must be someone. - Me. - That's my girl. - Truth is, you are terrified. -
We are all terrified. See, you bury your doubts, you bury your memories of the war. But at the core of your being, we are all cowards before death. (dramatic orchestral music)

Watching this I'm remembering Anthony Hopkins playing C.S. Lewis in the movie Shadowlands. Interesting evolution for the actor.

@BoogeyMan01

I love this type of movies. And with Anthony Hopkins is in it. So refreshing in the era of blockbusters

@rdrift1879

I saw this as a two man play years ago and enjoyed it very much. Now it is a movie after all these years. How about that!

@rituparnas3959

Can't wait! Especially when characters are played by Anthony Hopkins or Ralph Fiennes, let alone a character like Sigmund Freud.

@ericsteiner3580

I saw the original play and it was phenomenal. Hopefully this holds up

@nailsdeb

Yes !!! Good film with classical actor. Cant wait.

@springtimemarion

Bravo Sir Anthony Hopkins. You are a sensation, and you are a treasure to behold. Be Of Good Cheer, Marion Coleman, Athens, Georgia. USA

@ericbrown5588

I'm Catholic, but I'll be seeing this one! Definitely got Frost/Nixon vibes and Anthony Hopkins will always be one of the greats of acting!

@jeffreyroylopez733

I am so happy and grateful that I studied --- and am still learning & appreciating (progressively though from 1st year college nursing then teaching experience up to my PhD or so) the APPLICATION OF FREUD'S philosophies and thoughts on what's truth and reality...

@Necr0Mancer666

Powerful stuff!

@Bondfan1995

I hope this is the one where it gets tied into Bill And Ted’s Excellent Adventure, as Sony already ignored Napoleon’s conquer of San Dimas in Napoleon. Lol

@dean828

If Jesus of Nazareth was not whom He claimed to be... the world would not hate Him...

@kimpandorf4670

Love this movie! I hope it is streaming soon. It’s the kind of movie I’ll watch several more times.

@catherineadamic3656

Good solid film, seen it twice, the battle between Athesist and God, great acting!

@rameybutler-hm7nx

This is gonna be a oscar contender.

@mrfilmreview8361

it is extremely impressive how A.Hopkins now 86 still is in his prime when it comes to acting!

@teresavirde5859

My favourite actor ❤

@grimreaper7901

Alright, this is the first moment I've actually had a moment to talk. But yeah, I saw the movie earlier today and I've been busy until now. So this is my review of it. It's a bit of interesting interesting movie. It's a lot to take in. I can't really say it was enjoyable or what it's a lot to take in. It was more like a historical film. I thought it would be more like apple Heimer. And that was way way different. I didn't really go on too much in the detail about him. It was a different movie. Can't always see if I liked it or not. I can't really come up with a score on this one. Like I said, it seems like a historical film. But it really didn't go on too much in the detail. Had almost bought like it was a short bill. I mean. Like you blinked and it was over. I mean, I really didn't learn anything much about the guy. So oh yeah. Yes, watch It yourself. I guess and see what you feel about it. But to me. Yeah, I can't really can't really agree this one here that that was stupid difficult to do here

@seanmcgrath1326

Wonderful, looking forward to it. Do you recommend any written references by either of these two?

@pearlplumsparkle

Reminds me of a stage play. I wonder if this’ll get nominated for awards.
