An extremely strong shot of espresso brewed by Cronenberg, without a grain of sugar or a drop of cream. The level of filmmaking reaches surgical precision. But the meaning of the film remains impenetrable upon first viewing. I need to come back to this later.

Cold and detached, but captivating in a weird fashion. Cronenberg portrays perversion again with this psychological/psychopathic drama, but this time we see (almost) nothing. The perversion is just hanging everywhere in the air. Irons delivers a brilliant double performance in a very weird and unpleasant film.

Cronenberg is a master of the dark corners of our minds, navigating them like few others and demonstrating over the years how skillfully he handles his favored subject matter. In each of his films, we witness what is dark within a person; yet each film remains different, new, and unique. When I wrote this review, I hadn’t yet seen A Dangerous Method, but it was one of the films I was eagerly anticipating.

A very bold and original affair. A film so intricate and complex in its essence that it would make for several stacks of studies from different fields. Psychologically very sophisticated, yet emotionally a bit austere (except for the ending, which is really strong and excellent). And Jeremy Irons gives a truly incredible performance(s).
