===Theatre, film, television and radio=== ====Films in which Jung is a character in the narrative==== * 2002 saw the release of an Italian film about Jung and Spielrein ''[[The Soul Keeper]]'' (''Prendimi l'Anima'') directed by [[Roberto Faenza]]. It used English dialogue and English actors, but was never formally released in the United States. [[Emilia Fox]] played Sabina Spielrein and [[Iain Glen]] was Carl Gustav Jung. * ''[[A Dangerous Method]]'', a 2011 film directed by [[David Cronenberg]], is a fictional dramatisation of the lives of Freud, Jung, and [[Sabina Spielrein]] between 1904 and 1913. Spielrein is the Russian woman who became Jung's lover and student and, later, an analyst herself.<ref name="Cronenberg 2012 p.">{{cite book | last=Cronenberg | first=David | title=A dangerous method | publisher=Sony Pictures Home Entertainment | location=Culver City, Calif | year=2012 | oclc=776921046 | language=fr }}</ref> [[Michael Fassbender]] plays Carl Jung. The film is based on the stage play ''The Talking Cure'' by [[Christopher Hampton]] which was in turn based on the 1993 non-fiction book by [[John Kerr (author)|John Kerr]], ''A Most Dangerous Method: The Story of Jung, Freud, and Sabina Spielrein''. * In the online animated series, ''[[Super Science Friends]]'', Jung, voiced by Tom Park, is featured as one of the recurrent antagonists against Sigmund Freud.<ref>{{cite web |title=Super Science Friends β Full Cast & Crew |url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5202616/fullcredits/ |website=IMDb}}</ref> * ''[[Soul (2020 film)|Soul]]'', a 2020 [[Pixar]] film written by [[Pete Docter]], [[Mike Jones (screenwriter)|Mike Jones]] and [[Kemp Powers]], includes brief appearances of Jung as an ethereal cartoon character, "Soul Carl Jung".<ref>{{cite web|title='Soul' review: Pixar's excellent jazz movie goes deeper than ever|date=8 December 2020|last=Oleksinski|first=Johnny|work=NYPost|url=https://nypost.com/2020/12/08/soul-review-pixars-jazz-movie-goes-deeper-than-ever/}}</ref> * Jeff Lillico portrays Jung in episode 13 of season 15 "[[List of Murdoch Mysteries episodes#Season 15 (2021β2022)|Murdoch on the Couch]]" (January 10, 2022) of the [[CBC Television|Canadian television]] period [[Detective fiction|detective series]] [[Murdoch Mysteries]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Jeff Lillico |url=https://ggagency.ca/lillico/ |website=Gary Goddard Agency |date=2025 |access-date=April 5, 2025}}</ref> ====Documentaries==== * The [[BBC]] interviewed Jung for ''[[Face to Face (British TV series)|Face to Face]]'' with [[John Freeman (British politician)|John Freeman]] at Jung's home in Zurich in 1959.<ref name=bbc/> * Stephen Segaller produced a documentary on Jung as part of his "World of Dreams", ''Wisdom of the Dream'' in 1985. It was re-issued in 2018.<ref>Wisdom of the Dream (Carl Jung) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ci9nfJbvBjY</ref> It was followed by a book of the same title.<ref>{{cite book |author=Segaller, Stephen |author2=Berger, Merrill |title=Wisdom of the Dream |date=1990 |publisher=Shambhala Publications |isbn=978-0-87773-587-8}}</ref> * ''Matter of Heart'' (1986) is a documentary about Jung featuring interviews with those who knew him and archival footage.<ref>{{cite web |title=Matter of Heart β Full Cast & Crew |url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0084313/fullcredits/?ref_=tt_cl_sm/ |website=IMDb}}</ref> *On 2 December 2004, [[BBC Radio 4]]'s [[In Our Time (radio series)|''In Our Time'']] broadcast a program on "the mind and theories" of Jung.<ref>{{Cite web|title=BBC Radio 4 β In Our Time, Jung|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p004y2bf|access-date=22 June 2021|website=BBC|language=en-GB}}</ref> ====Film, stage, and television influenced by Jung's ideas==== * [[Federico Fellini]] brought to the screen exuberant imagery shaped by his encounter with Jung's ideas, especially Jungian [[dream interpretation]]. Fellini preferred Jung to Freud because Jungian analysis defined the dream not as a symptom of a disease that required a cure but rather as a link to archetypal images shared by all of humanity.<ref>{{cite book|last=Bondanella|first=Peter E.|title=The Films of Federico Fellini|url=https://archive.org/details/filmsfedericofel00bond|url-access=limited|page=[https://archive.org/details/filmsfedericofel00bond/page/n109 94]|isbn=978-0-521-57573-7|date=17 January 2002|publisher=Cambridge University Press }}</ref> * [[Stanley Kubrick]]'s 1987 film ''[[Full Metal Jacket]]'' has an underlying theme about the duality of man. In one scene, a colonel asks a soldier, "You write 'Born to Kill' on your helmet and you wear a peace button. What's that supposed to be, some kind of sick joke?" The soldier replies, "I think I was trying to suggest something about the duality of man, sir...the Jungian thing, sir."<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.visual-memory.co.uk/amk/doc/0065.html|title=The Kubrick Site: The Full Metal Jacket Screenplay|website=www.visual-memory.co.uk}}</ref> * In the 1994 ''Frasier'' episode, "Frasier Crane's Day Off", Niles fills in for his brother, declaring: "Although I feel perfectly qualified to fill Frasier's radio shoes, I should warn you that while Frasier is a Freudian, I am a Jungian. So there'll be no blaming Mother today." * [[Robert Eggers]]'s 2019 psychological thriller ''[[The Lighthouse (2019 film)|The Lighthouse]]'' has elements strongly influenced by Jung's work, with Eggers hoping that "it's a movie where both Jung and Freud would be furiously eating their popcorn".<ref>{{cite web|title='He Sort Of Wants A Daddy': Decoding The Homoeroticism In 'The Lighthouse'|date=20 October 2019|last=Jacobs|first=Matthew|work=HuffPost|url=https://m.huffingtonpost.ca/entry/the-lighthouse-homoeroticism-robert-pattinson-willem-dafoe_n_5da9c888e4b0e71d65b801ae}}</ref>
