Very underrated and overlooked film, and it has someone for everyone: Keira Knightley, Fassbender, Viggo!

I totally agree it was too slow. Pacing was bad, but fascinating, and showed how once again, men took the credit for a woman's scientific work. Or WOMEN, since Jung's wife also worked closely with him.

The IRL character Knightley played was killed by the Nazis btw.
