Freud vs. Lewis: On God, Love, Sex, and the Meaning of Life.

As old Freud claimed, — our actions are driven by two motives: the desire to excel and sexual attraction. What can I say, the world is not perfect, but kudos to Freud for the fact that all the problems in our life are based on sexual nature.

Another Tuesday in the loud pub «The Eagle and Child», located on St. Giles Boulevard, Oxford, literary club members John Tolkien and Clive Lewis, sitting comfortably in club chairs and smoking their pipes, discussed ... no, not Middle-earth or Narnia.

Lewis' recently published theological novel "The Pilgrim's Regress" served as the basis for their polemical discussion in the character of a character named Sigmund, he has mocked a famous atheist psychoanalyst.

But at the same time, in the heart of Hampstead, in his luxurious mansion, Professor Freud, offended by the literary provocateur's insolence and blasphemy, planned a subtle revenge - to challenge him to a theological duel and crush him with the power of persuasive arguments.

So, on one gloomy September morning in 1939, when all of Great Britain froze at the loudspeakers waiting for the king's speech, the humble professor Clive Lewis went to London to meet the great Sigmund Freud.

p>No one really knows whether this meeting really took place or not, but it is clearly known that at the same time when the world was in panic and Europe was being torn by the flames of war, in a respectable area of ​​London, the famous psychoanalyst met with a professor of literature from Oxford, in order to clarify the questions of the creation of the world in a psychological-intellectual duel.

You ask, what does sex have to do with it? But you will learn about it, as well as about God, love and the meaning of life, from the film itself.

And keep in mind - «sometimes a cigar is just a cigar».
