Movie Reviews of Biography - Sigmund Freud: Analysis of a Mind (A&E DVD Archives)

Movie Review: Good Material on Freud
Summary: 5 Stars

The is a DVD of an A&E Biography program about Freud from about ten years ago. But the age of the program is not at all a negative. This program does a good job of exposing the viewers to many aspects of the life of Sigmund Freud, who is probably one of the most misunderstood and misinterpreted of the early founders of Psychology. This program not only talks about Freud's work and his background, but puts it in perspective of the times. Having been to the Sigmund Freud Museum in Vienna, this program is very accurate in its description of Freud, his life and his relationships. This is another video that I will show to Psychology majors taking my History of Psychology class. I highly recommend it if you are a student of psychology or just want to get a better understanding of Freud.

Summary of Biography - Sigmund Freud: Analysis of a Mind (A&E DVD Archives)

Sigmund Freud didn't intend to get into the field of psychiatry. His dream was to be a research scientist, but because of Jewish quotas he wasn't permitted to enter into the field of study. So he became a doctor specializing in nervous diseases, because at the time that's where the money was and he desperately wanted the cash so he could marry his fiancée. A&E's Biography: Sigmund Freud is an illuminating look at the man who changed the way the world viewed sexuality and who gave us "the talking cure," better known today as psychoanalysis. Through photographs, interviews with psychoanalytic experts and Freud's grandchildren, and even with a brief recording that Freud himself made, we gain a glimpse into the life of this complex man, from his childhood in Vienna to his escape to London during World War II. His life was full of contradictions: he delved into self-analysis, but never looked at his addiction to cigars; he was an early advocate of cocaine, causing a close friend to become addicted; he demanded complete loyalty from his protégés, causing a serious rift in his relationship with Carl Jung. This installment of the Biography series is a worthy addition, providing an enjoyable and educational look at "the doctor of love." --Jenny Brown
