Directed by —, Sigmund Freud: Analysis of a Mind leans on a strong ensemble — Sigmund Freud, Joe Aguayo, Harold P. Blum — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 1996.
