Movie+list

List taken and edited from Wikipedia, ** please select from this list or email me to ask about another film ** ; if it is on this list, then you are good and no need to email me, you are already approved. If you want to do a movie that is not on the list, you must get an OK on it from me before getting started. Dissociative disorders/Multiple Personality are not real and are therefore not on the list. Ditto for crazed serial killers that are totally fictitious. Amnesia is an injury, so we are not including that as we will cover it (briefly) in our brain unit. There are many other movies about mental illness out there, but you must seek approval before watching them for this assignment. To get approval, just email me the imdb link.

Please do not think "oh, I watched this movie a few years ago and can remember all the tiny details of how the condition was shown enough to write about it." Unless you are a savant, no, you won't. If you are a savant, you have other interesting things going on. Please pick your movie quickly and use netflix, redbox, ondemand, the public library, the internet, or your telepathic powers to view it before the project is due.
