Ever since my first encounter with David Cronenberg's unique brand of body horror upon my chance viewing of The Fly in my early teens I have been enamoured with his output. Even though Cronenberg has strayed away from the style of films that created his initial success, his bold move into different genres has proven successful with A History of Violence and Eastern Promises. His latest effort, A Dangerous Method, marks his third collaboration with Viggo Mortensen alongside a stellar cast including Michael Fassbender, Vincent Cassel and Kiera Knightley. Following Freud and Jung during the development of psychoanalysis, the film appears to be a gripping drama that may well contain some powerhouse performances from the lead actors. Fingers crossed that this turns out to be as good as it looks.
