OT Favorite Movies - Top Ten List

[Eyes On The Prize]

I think one of my friends recommended it to me but I forgot about it, I'll have to check it out! I'm a psychology major and I just try to absorb everything psych related that I can haha.

Same! Except for the major part. If I didn't do graphic design as a major, I would've done psych. Sometimes I regret not picking that. I love everything about it but I don't think I could make a career out of it. So I guess it'll be something I learn about for fun on my own.

Our professors are incredible, and just really awesome people. The gen psych professor is why I changed my major from English to Psych. And provided I get into grad school (and I should but I have a year before I can start applying), I want to get my masters in Counseling Psychology.

Thank you!!! @HeresAThought, @Eyes On The Prize, and @NJ Coach! I'll try to watch them all even if not for my assignment because I geek out over psychology and mental illnesses.

Anybody have any good movies about mental illnesses? I know of (and really enjoy) A Beautiful Mind but I need one to diagnose characters for my Abnormal Psych class.

Memento is awesome. Touches on whether memory is a reflection of reality and how memory affects personal identity.
Brothers has an all star cast - Tobey McGuire, Natalie Portman, Jake Gyllenhaal - focuses on PTSD

I thought it was decent. The first half was wayyyy better than the second. I agree, it felt drawn out.
