My assignment for psychology class is to watch a movie dealing with a mental disorder, then review and talk about the said disorder. Fairly simple stuff.
The list of movies we have are fairly stupid and/or cliche when it comes to disorders. So, anyone have any good recommendations?
(SWF does not apply :o ) |

I think you should do it on K-Pax. There is something that is very wrong in the mental health community and that is the assumption that relatively "radical" ideas puts an individual at the risk of being labeled a threat to peace, forcing his/her extradition into a hospital. I entrust you, Banora, to help us out of this cage. People don't believe I am one of the spawn species of the Earth human race, originally a test subject from the first mutations out of Venus prior to the greenhouse apocalypse. My blood is a genetic and medical holy grail, containing the exact diagrams for fending off disease and immortalicizing life. They don't believe me, just as they don't believe Kevin Spacey in K-Pax, just as they don't believe Galileo, or Aristotle. |

Yes, this was exactly what I was going to recommend.
Fight Club and American Psycho would be top-notch choices too along with The Shining
On Primal Fear, he wasn't really mentally ill. He just conned the out of everyone ;) |
