Such a great treatment of psychotic illness and the war that goes on between what you perceive and what you are told is real. Bit by bit I learnt to integrate the delusions into a functional personality. Just functional. Took a few years until it was easy... Rough times. Luv and Peace.

A good account of mental illness,although there is just one aspect of the movie that Nash later stated was not true to his life story.
