A Dangerous Method is an upcoming 2011 historical movie directed by David Cronenberg and starred by Viggo Mortensen, Michael Fassbender, Keira Knightley and Vincent Cassel. The screenplay was based by Academy Award-winning writer Christopher Hampton from his 2002 stage play The Talking Cure, which was adapted on the 1993 non-fiction book by John Kerr, A Most Dangerous Method.
This movie marks the 3rd simultaneous and total collaboration between Cronenberg and Viggo Mortensen (after A History of Violence and Eastern Promises). This is also the 3rd Cronenberg movie created with British movie producer Jeremy Thomas, after completing together the William Burroughs adaptation Naked Lunch and the J.G. Ballard adaptation Crash. A Dangerous Method was a German/Canadian co-production. This movie premiered at The 68th Venice Film Festival and was also featured at the 2011 Toronto International Film Festival.
Scheduled on the eve of World War I, A Dangerous Method is adapted on the turbulent relationships together with fledgling psychiatrist Carl Jung, his mentor Sigmund Freud, and Sabina Spielrein, the uncertain but beautiful young woman who goes between them.
