For all you movie freaks here is a list of movies that realistically portrait mental illness, made by independent and excellent page The taste of cinema. Enjoy :))

I should add that this is still an incomplete list, they didn’t include “Take shelter”, for instance.
Pretty good list honestly. I love alot of the movies on there, especially Girl Interrupted because it’s slightly funny at times. I’d like to see the schizophrenia movies though

I really liked Mr Jones, my other favorites are A Beautiful Mind and Donnie Darko - they weren’t on the list.

Inland Empire…
Pretty much nails the first-person experience, no narration, no explanation…
Also, though very obscure and hard to find I think, “Last Year at Marienbad”
I recommend Clean, Shaven .
