SIGMUND FREUD PRIVAT VIDEOS

The amateur movies showing Freud with his family and friends were filmed between 1930 and 1939 in Vienna, Paris and London. The majority were taken by Marie Bonaparte whose footage also documents the "Anschluss", the unification of Austria with Nazi Germany. The American psychoanalyst Ruth Mack Brunswick filmed some of the family celebrations. These films were made for private purposes only and with a few exceptions they depict scenes from freud's family life. Not least among the participants are the numerous dogs. As the secret stars of family festivities, they frequently steal the limelight.
Together with a film taken in 1928 by Philip Lehrman which shows freud and members of the Vienna Psychoanalytic Society, these silent, amateur movies are the only films made of the founder of psychoanalysis, who otherwise shied away from photography and the media.
