First Person Narrative: Depictions of Mental Health in the Movies


Geoff Pevere, Program Manager of the Rendezvous with Madness film festival, presents film clips and facilitated discussion about how mental health is depicted through first person narrative in the movies. Watch for clips of Taxi Driver, The Tenant, Eraserhead, A Woman Under the Influence and talk about how 'movies have sought to express the experience of mental disorder from the perspective of the disordered mind... generating some of the most bold and daring works of art.'
