This week on OMFG, a show about movies made partially or wholly in Montana, we dive into Jimmy P: Psychotherapy of a Plains Indian (2013). It’s a quiet, layered film about a Blackfeet WWII vet (played by Benicio Del Toro) dealing with a mysterious illness after the war—bouts of blindness, disorientation, and a system that doesn’t know how to treat him. Enter a French analyst (Mathieu Amalric) with some unorthodox methods. Together, they uncover a life story shaped by a hard childhood and the constant drag of racism, told through one of the more unusual therapy sessions you’ll see in film.
Also—Daniel is back on the pod! Always good to have his voice in the mix as we unravel this lesser-known gem that’s part Western, part psychological drama, and part character study of resilience.
Let's be friends:
