Movies

Anyone care to suggest a good movie to watch from a psychological viewpoint? I'm asking because for AP Psychology we have an optional extra credit assignment where we watch a movie and write a two page reaction essay, but it's not due until October so I have time to watch a few.

Being John Malkovich

a good movie

Anything in the Hannibal series. Silence of the Lambs is a classic.

Also, if you want a movie by the same directors of Being John Malkovich that DOESN'T suck, watch Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Not nearly as "psychological" as Being John Malkovich, but the psychological standpoint is definitely there.

But as far as psychological films go, Memento is EASILY my favorite. Watch it even despite the assignment. Amazing movie.

EDIT: Also, The Machinist isn't bad, but it's kind of slow.

Paprika maybe?
anybody know if Hobo With A Shotgun is any good?

[Trygve]

Maybe Stranger than Fiction.

I really appreciate the suggestions, guys. I'll put them all on a list of movies to watch.

[Trygve]

Oh, try out "The Bothersome Man" (Den brysomme mannen). Just remember to get subtitles.

My opinion of everything changes every time anyone says that.

Suddenly, Being John Malkovich is awesome! I love you Lambeth

NOW I HATE JOHN MALKOVICH AGAIN. AND MY OPINION OF WESTERNS HAS BECOME NEUTRAL.

I watched Paul last night. It was pretty cool.

Ha, so did I.
Loved all the sci-fi references / fan service in that film.

Recommendation for Alex? Fearless.

The whole movie is one big psychological reaction to a huge disaster (plane crash). Plus, Jeff Bridges rocks.

Crash is another good one like that

Goes into the mindset behind race relations

I could not physically sit through that movie. Or Precious.
