Maybe, but I haven't seen that movie so I don't know if it falls under the criteria he gave the class. The movie I watch has to fall under the units we're studying (Biological bases of behavior, sensation and perception, life-span developmental psychology, motivation and emotion, states of consciousness, assessment and individual differences, health [conflict, coping, stress], cognitive.)

It's a good movie about exploring emotions that we take for granted. Could work for an essay????

Do one of those Drama movies like The Fighter

Alternatively; THe Dark Knight. There's a psyche study in there somewhere and everybody loves Batman

Or, Shutter Island, a film actual about psychology. Pretty good film too.

Oh, I forgot to mention: it's totally unrealistic.

They forgot the beer. That just doesn't happen. Ever. Unless you're braindead. You can't not notice that your car isn't filled to the brim. You can't not notice that you don't have a beer in your hand while riding in the car. Trust me on this one.

Jacob's Ladder or Eraserhead

The Fountain

That movie should have more than enough psychological crap jammed up inside it for you to write a paper, and it's a good watch as well.

I know the book better than the movie though.
