What psychological, or 'deep' films would you recommend?
For example, i really enjoyed Donnie Darko, and would like to find similar films to this...
Also, am doing Psychology at school, and would like to look into films touching on, or about this subject.
Thank you.

Momento was a sweet movie... tons of symbolism, and a great story. The whole movie was filmed backwards. Stars Guy Peirce. It's about a guy with no short term memory trying to find his wife's killer.
One flew over the Cuckoos Nest. Starring Jack Nicholson. About a guy who admits himself to a psych ward and ends up it's victim... pretty cool, but it'll make you mad.

I just rented a movie called 'Bug' with Ashley Judd. Very strange movie IMO. But it is very psychological. I think you'll like it.

Sublime.
Check it out.
You Will Be Amazed.
Even Though It's not like a huge hit, it's really amazing and it gives me a "deep" feeling.
O and SLC punk is a great movie, but I don't think it's what you're looking for, neither is fight club but idk thats just my opinion

These are a couple I can think of with schizophrenia or some other mental disorder. Some of them you may have to watch the whole way through before understanding that it does have something to do with a mental disorder, but they might be of interest anyway.
