On the eve of the Second World War, two of the greatest minds on the twentieth century, C.S. LEWIS and SIGMUND FREUD converge for their own personal battle over the existence of God. FREUD’S LAST SESSION interweaves the lives of Freud and Lewis, past, present, and through fantasy, bursting from the confines of Freud’s study on a dynamic journey.

Hopkins playing Sigmund Freud so amazingly is vindication for him being the oldest Oscar winning actor. At 85 years old he's still doing great masterclass work. A true legend!👏👏

Man, I can't wait for this. I love movies that take take place over a single conversation or day. I love Hopkins. I love Lewis. I'm fascinated by Freud, by psychology. This thing is going to be exactly the kind of thing that I love. I'll happily go see this on Christmas.

I saw this as a stage play in 2012. The writer/director told us that his inspiration of writing was that in one of Freud’s last journals he wrote, “Today, I met with a young Christian scholar from Oxford”. And he thought “oh my gosh what if!”

One thing's for sure: Antony Hopkins is legendary... But Matthew Goode has been delivering very solid performances for a long time, with a lot of integrity, talent and beauty. For me, he's one of the great actors who hasn't yet been recognised. I want to see the film for both actors, but even more for Matthew.

[@carlovincent]

I agree! I root for Matthew too.

[@schokoladendonut]

[@something.something189]

I have been such a huge fan of Matthew from burning man to stoker. The range, the emotions...this man truly is a chameleon of an actor.

[@dougdeveloper8850]

Anthony Hopkins is a legend. One of the greatest actors ever. It pains me to know he does not have much time left. But I'm so glad at his age, he wakes up, and does what we he loves to do, giving amazing performances.

[@BenGoldNYC]

He doesn’t seem to be slowing down at all, I feel like we’ll see a few more great performances from him in the years to come

[@taotzu1339]

@@BenGoldNYC I'll bet Sir Anthony Hopkins and Sir David Attenborough can probably still get in the ring and box it out.

[@BenGoldNYC]

@@taotzu1339 my money is on Hopkins…

[@JRRLewis]

Since Westworld in 2016, Anthony Hopkins has been having quite a late-career resurgence with some of the best work of his career, esp. in The Father, The Two Popes, and King Lear. I have a feeling this may be another of those great performances. In fact, if Hopkins is only half as great in this movie as when he himself played C.S. Lewis in Shadowlands, this will still be a brilliant performance.

[@mustang8206]

Acting like this guy didn't voice all those nature documentaries 😂

[@JRRLewis]

@@mustang8206 You must be getting Sir Anthony Hopkins, one of the greatest actors of all time, a two-time Oscar winner, and a former protege of the legendary Laurence Olivier, confused with Sir David Attenborough, the naturalist. They are kind of similar; I can see how it happened. Hopkins has never done the narration for nature documentaries (though he did host one show about lions back in the 1990s); David Attenborough has done many but is not a movie actor. Of course, Hopkins has done a lot of things worse than narrating nature documentaries, but he has been in several critically acclaimed roles in his late 70s through mid-80s so far--and that is impressive by any standard.

[@medou2161]

He was also great in Armageddon Time

[@GuineaPigEveryday]

And he's going to play in One Life too which looks phenomenal. Honestly since I grew up in the 2000s, my first exposure to Hopkins was Westworld, before I started watching the classics, but man the fact that he's still so pitch-perfect after all this time, and that he still gets the great roles through which to remind us of this, is great to see. Often times a great actor at old age kind of gets relegated to smaller films, Michael Caine just recently book-ended his career with a very small film, just glad Hopkins is still with us.

[@drewprice8468]

His work in Westerworld is a masterpiece…absolute transcendence. The finest acting ever put on film. Every subtlety and nuance coursing with meaning.

[@MoniqueGionet]

Lewis was an absolute genius. His philosophy works are some heavy stuff but once you understand he really opens your eyes

[@mikeoyler2983]

Outside of his actual field of Late Medieval Literature, he was an avid Christian apologist. Christianity is hardly a philosophy. It is a religion.

[@toonnaobi-okoye2949]

@@mikeoyler2983 Christianity, by definition, is a philosophy. In Christian, God is the source of all wisdom, and christianity is the intimate knowledge of God.

[@mikeoyler2983]

@@toonnaobi-okoye2949 Philosophy concerns itself with the natural world. The Encyclopedia Britannica defines the two concepts as follows, "Philosophy, (from Greek, by way of Latin, philosophia, “love of wisdom”) the rational, abstract, and methodical consideration of reality as a whole or of fundamental dimensions of human existence and experience. Philosophical inquiry is a central element in the intellectual history of many civilizations." And as you have written, the encyclopedia also defines "religion, human beings’ relation to that which they regard as holy, sacred, absolute, spiritual, divine, or worthy of especial reverence. It is also commonly regarded as consisting of the way people deal with ultimate concerns about their lives and their fate after death. In many traditions, this relation and these concerns are expressed in terms of one’s relationship with or attitude toward gods or spirits;" The two are not the same. Please see the articles.

[@JRRLewis]

​@@mikeoyler2983 I think a lot of what Lewis wrote could be legitimately considered philosophy; however, even if you want to be strict with the term, he was clearly influenced by ancient philosophers. Just to take his most popular book series, the Underworld and the evil Queen's arguments to the children and Puddleglum about it are clearly a reworking and discussion of "Plato's cave." And thinking of Anthony Hopkins, the movie he was in playing Lewis was called Shadowlands, a term which the real Lewis used to represent the life in the physical world as opposed to the "real" spiritual world after death. To him this world is a world of shadows like the shadows on the walls of Plato's cave that can only hint in a flat, pathetic way at the real things outside the cave that are casting the shadows. Plato alone informed a lot of Lewis' thinking, and of course he was very taken by the ancient Greeks in general.

I’ve always loved the HBO series called In Treatment because each episode was a session in the therapist office.With this film we get that format with one of the greatest actors to have ever worked in the business playing the most iconic man to have ever worked in that business.

The people who struggle about God’s existence are the ones who does not accept that all the evil we live in this world are the consequences of sin. It doesn’t have nothing to do with God but with the free will that God has given to humans. Humans are who decide and choose evil when we decide to live contrary to what God says in His Word. The Word of God is the manual that God gave us to live victorious and good lives. ”All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.“ (2 Timothy‬ ‭3‬:‭16‬-‭17‬ ‭ESV‬‬)

This looks interesting. Hopkins, Goode, and Fries are all excellent individually, so I’m looking forward to seeing them as an ensemble. Perhaps soon there will be a movie with such a stellar cast focusing on Anna Freud, a foundational psychologist in her own right, as opposed to the continued tradition of movies focusing heavily on men whose lives have already received overwhelmingly significant attention.
