Infidelity Vs Hollywood Blockbusters

Improved Essays
This film would be an independent film, because based on the plot and the message that this film is trying to send out. It would not need a huge budget to get its point across. This film would focus more on the dialogue, over action scenes like Hollywood blockbusters do. This film would instead, try to entertain the audience through a psychological standpoint, and focus on character development in the film.
The best way to get this film out to the people, and to show it to a lot of people, would be to take the playability strategy instead of, taking the marketability approach. The purpose of this film is, once again, address the issues caused by schizophrenia. This film would do best with playability because it would make it easily accessible

    1) I thought this documentary was very eye opening and educational. It has really shown how far psychology has come and why studying psychology is so important. This documentary took us from the dark and bleak times when patients were treated as prisoners and given zero hope. The institutions were essentially prison for the mentally ill, where the doors were always locked and cramped. One of the most appalling illustrations of how the patients were treated was showcased when we heard about the nurse smacking the blind man across the back of his head and stating “live among shit, become shit.”…

    This being one of my favorite movies of all time, I could not deny using this opportunity to write about one of the most severe cases of schizophrenia to be diagnosed with. Along with being based on a true story, this captivating film clearly showed what it is like for people to have this diagnosis go untreated and how it warps the mind. The movie starts out in 1947 with John Forbes Nash Jr., a genius among the time, who comes to Princeton University as a graduate student after receiving the Carnegie Scholarship for his work in mathematics. While Nash is at a bar with some of his fellow students, they try to come up with a strategy to talk to some woman there. As they discuss some possible approaches, Nash creates an idea, which becomes known as the Nash Equilibrium and publishes a piece on it.…

    In the end, it is suggested that love is a realistic cure to heal mental illness. This challenges medical science where medication is the only effective treatment. However, this movie intelligently displays the intricacy of disorders and the effect traumatic events can have on people. The movies focus is the story line, leading to inaccuracies in the portrayal of mental disorders. However, it is by far the best representation of mental illness which is mostly displayed by media as gun toting, knife wielding serial…

    On the other hand, when a mental illness is depicted in this outlandish way, the struggle of the person dealing with the mental illness is overshadowed by the comedy used to represent the disorder, and the behavior is more accurately related to a comedy act than it is to an actual representation of the disease. When the behaviors of people with mental disorders in film includes this type of nonsense, it is, unfortunately, perceived merely as bizarre behavior that is meant to be laughed…

    The theory that dictates the premise of the movie is symbolic interactionism and the three components associated with that theory are: the social construct of reality, the stages of the mentally ill identity and the transition from civilian to mental health patient. The whole movie ties in the idea that our behaviors, personalities and actions feed off of the notion of what society deems or constructs to be normal or real. Society creates the stigma and our education of mental health comes from ideas that have been socially constructed and may not be true. Others interpretation of our opinions and actions are formed through their observation of our relationships and interactions but there are various factors to consider and not everyone should be evaluated the…

    I felt ashamed when I discovered my perception is not the reality, I felt guilty for my ignorance. I believe this is not only my problem, but is also a social problem – the whole society lacks the knowledge of mental illness. I think mental illness should be promoted more through mass media, so as to eliminate the problem of lack of knowledge which is the cause of stigmatization. Although some might argue that there are already many channels for spreading equality of mental illness patients, the promotion is still inadequate. We should promote more information about mental illness through mass media so as to alleviate discrimination against…
