Stutz mentions offhandedly in the beginning that he is in the middle stages of Parkinson’s syndrome, right? To me that gets to the essence of why this particular movie is being made: not because Stutz is a uniquely amazing therapist who has some secret no one else does, and I don’t think either of them feel that way. Jonah cares about his therapist so much that he wants part of him to live forever; by filming the session, everyone in the future will get the chance to have a sit with Stutz after this awful, incurable, degenerative, significantly quality-of-life limiting disability (assuming we don’t cure it soon which might actually happen given some amazing developments in implants and other medical technologies but we are still a way off and it won’t be medication) takes away his ability to see clients and eventually kills him. Which might be in one or two decades or might be next week, I don’t know enough about his symptoms to say, if anyone really can predict. But obviously stating that to his face would be a total bummer so it’s the elephant in the room but in kind of a beautiful way. In this sense it reminds me a little bit of Tuesdays With Morrie.

I found it uncomfortable to watch as he seems to be claiming ownership of theories and practices that have been built on by many overtime. He's personalised his approach but as you say this is a lot of common knowledge in the psychotherapy world.
