I will only remind you of your earlier observations… And what people say is less important than what they cannot.
— C. S. Lewis, in a conversation with Sigmund Freud, in “Freud’s Last Sessions” (2023).
Notes:
- Movie Review in NY Times: ‘Freud’s Last Session’ Review: Film Adaptation and Its Discontents. Sigmund Freud and C.S. Lewis probably never met. What the stage-based film presupposes is: Maybe they did?
- Movie Review in Variety: ‘Freud’s Last Session’ Review: Anthony Hopkins Slips Easily Into Sigmund’s Skin in Talky Two-Hander
Wow! That would be good.

C.S. Lewis and S. Freud never met to my knowledge. I agree with Freud that god is an illusion and to believe in religion a kind of mass-neurosis. But unfortunately I haven’t seen the film yet, I only read some reviews.

Wow – that‘s definitely a keeper. Anything with Anthony Hopkins in it is worth watching. He is always believable and he has frightened sometimes the sh.. out of me in his darker roles. Thanks for this – it might take a while to come to my vicinity but I‘ve time to wait for something so worthwhile!
