Movies With Mental Illness Themes?
Girl Interrupted centers primarily on BPD, APD, and a variety of other issues. There's a whole host of movies out there like that, let's see....... The Other Sister Silence of the Lambs trilogy focuses heavily on demented killers and their motives Don't Say a Word(Brittany Murphy as a lunatic, pretty convincing) I Am Sam(Sean Penn brilliantly portraying a father with learning and functioning disablities, also an interesting cultural study on how parents with mental illness are handled through the system) That's a few of probably thousands. Can't think of any more right now, though........
“Gone With the Wind” (novel & movie) -Scarlett O’HaraThere’s more, too, on the general topic of characters reflecting zodiac signs in this movie/novel :-In 1978 when US astrologer Darrell Martinie was shown photocopies of notes from Margaret Mitchell`s library a theory was circulated, possibly by an astrologer, Neil Spencer, that “Gone With the Wind” was : “a thinly disguised astrological allegory". The theory was that Margaret Mitchell based the characters of her epic on the zodiac, leaving a trail of clues.This is a list of possible links I found, and saved, from an astrology forum years ago:Aries - Scarlett O'HaraTaurus - Scarlett's Father, and Tara the PlantationGemini: Prissy and Aunt Pitty PatCancer: Melanie (Ashley's Wife)Leo: Rhett ButlerVirgo: Scarlett's MotherLibra: Belle Wattling (The Madam and friend of Rhett Butler)Scorpio: MammySagittarius: Bonnie (daughter of Rhett and Scarlett)Capricorn: Ashley WilkesAquarius: Mr Kennedy, Scarlett's 2nd husband and Ashley's sister India WilkesPisces: Scarlett's sisters and Scarlett's 1st husband.The Ashley Wilkes Plantation named 12 Oaks after the 12 Zodiac Signs.

What are some movies that portray mental illness's?
All movies!,they are the byproduct of unconscious imaginations! They mass hypnotise peoples,they are stupid imagination prepared and dianpated by some useless producers,directors and jobless actors. They hypnotise people to earn money,they are not really concerned about the any moral values etc. They are only concerned about earning money. Actors are paid much for their foolish acting,they expose their body for money. Exposing their body,they earn more money and increase their bank balance while poor and hard working peoples are in problem! And peoples are divided as rich and poor according to bank balance,in old times it was according to racial or family basis. Now its is worst than racial basis,anyone can become a rich class and feel that he is great. Whole world is stupid,they categorize each other as poor or rich and they exploit each other even in own nation. Darwin is right when he say that only powerfull creatures will survive! It is mental illness. Poor and rich class or intelligent and stupid are belongs to same family,originally same group. But whole world is running to gain success by exploiting thier own peoples! Whole world is a best example for mental illness.

Anyone know of some movies where the main character has a mental disability?
I Am Sam - it is so evident that it is heavy handed and it is the center of the story, because he is fighting for his right to keep his daughter. Sam Dawson has the mental capacity of a 7-year-old. He works at a Starbucks and is obsessed with the Beatles. He has a daughter with a homeless woman; she abandons them as soon as they leave the hospital. He names his daughter Lucy Diamond (after the Beatles song), and raises her. But as she reaches age 7 herself, Sam's limitations start to become a problem at school; she's intentionally holding back to avoid looking smarter than him. The authorities take her away, and Sam shames high-priced lawyer Rita Harrison into taking his case pro bono. In the process, he teaches her a great deal about love, and whether it's really all you need. Written by Jon Reeves
Can anyone name any mental disorder movies and the character that has the mental disorder.?
I AM Sam: Sean Penn I believe the character was labeled MR Finding Nemo: Holy cow.. His dad has an anxiety disorder Dori has short term memory Nemo has a deformed fin there are more that I thought of when i was watching this film, i just can't remember right now. Forest Gump: Tom Hanks Processing disorder (slow to understand) Radio: was he autistic or MR? (or both) Rain Man Dustin Hoffman Autistic The Doll house murders---The daughter who sees the dolls reinacting the murder is mentally handicapped. The Ringer: not a great movie, but a "normal" person tries to win the special olympics, acts as if he has a disability. Many of the extras in this movie really did have mental handicaps. (There was a lot of controversy over this film) Hand that Rocks that cradle: The woman who was trying to take over the family was probably schizophrenic and the man who worked as a "handy man" was mentally handicapped as well. Any movie affiliated with Stephen KIng characters or any "murderer" has to be have mental issues. That is not a normal response to solve any problem. Something has to snap in a person to do such violent acts.
