Jeff Goldblum and Tye Sheridan in The Mountain (2018)
Set against the 1950's "golden age" of American male supremacy, an introverted young photographer (Tye Sheridan) joins a renowned lobotomist (Jeff Goldblum) on a tour to promote the doctor's recently-debunked procedure. As he increasingly identifies with the asylum's patients, he becomes enamored with a rebellious young woman (Hannah Gross) and lost in the burgeoning New Age movement of the west.

    • Trivia
      Talking about the aspect ratio in which the film was shot (4:3), cinematographer Lorenzo Hagerman said that, while being a beautiful ratio to work with, it also managed to help in the framing of Jeff Goldblum (6'4", 1.94m) and Tye Sheridan (5'7", 1.71m) in their scenes together, without it looking funny.

    'Could have been so interesting.
    Fair enough that this film is a vehicle for Jeff Goldblum, and a character loosely based on the infamous neurosurgeon who invented the transorbital lobotomy ought to give him plenty to work with. In those days, there were no meds yet, to control patient behavior, and lobotomies were a response to that urgent need. The real-life Dr. Freeman was obsessed with the need for social conformity, and thought that his compliant, lobotomized patients were an improvement on disorderly nature. So, how could Goldblum turn him into someone so bland? His Dr. Fiennes has no insight into his own status as monster. He seems to be a latter-day Don Quixote, meaning well, riding the roads with his '52 Plymouth (instead of a horse named Rocinante) with his faithful Polaroid-Land-Camera carrying sidekick, Andy (instead of Sancho) by his side. Maybe its a statement about the banality of evil. It does not work for me.
