Welcome Back Second Opinion with “Mr & Mrs Smith” & “Freaky Friday”

May 23, 2024

Dr. Sam and Dr. Fran are thrilled to launch the 5th season of Freudian Scripts with a Second Opinion mini-session!  Just as someone may seek a second opinion from a doctor, some scenes require a second look from Drs. Sam and Fran. They surprise each other with new clips while listening and reacting to them for the first time in real time. First, they review a clip from a classic, Freaky Friday. They analyze a teenager providing therapy as her mom who is actually a therapist. Judgement and ethical conundrums abound. Things may get confusing!


Then, they listen to a clip from Mr. & Mrs. Smith. In the midst of working for a mysterious spy agency, Mr. and Mrs. Smith seek couples therapy. They discuss communication, trust, and boundaries while analyzing the therapist’s approach with the sneaky spies.


So, how do you feel about that?
