What's a good movie that shows conversion disorder?

If you get the book, Movies and Mental Illness, Using Films to Understand Psychopathology, they list Hollywood Ending (hysterical blindness), Sorry, Wrong Number (unexplained paralysis), and Persona (sudden loss of speech) as good portrayals of conversion disorder.

Unfortunately, I've seen only "Todo sobre mi madre" ("All about my mother" in English, right?). This is one of my favourite movies, all cry every time when I watched it. I am sure that the rest of his movies are also extraordinary.

Miracle on 34th Street, of course. The Santa Clause I or II, & Maybe a Charlie Brown Christmas?

The English Patient.\n\nIt was one of the best love stories of all time and it had unfortunate circumstances arise due to this couples relationship. I cried my eyes out over this movie.

I loved it!!!! It was one of my favorite movies of all time. The gospel was beautifully shown in the movie and that is what I loved about it. It is an awesome way to witness to a non-believer.

I really enjoyed that docufilm. It made me realize that in my life, there are certain things that happen because I have trained my brain to respond in that manner. If I can disconnect the neurons in my brain and retrain them, I may not be as angry at life as I think I am. So, lets say, my husband comes home late. I automatically assume some ghastly vision which included some other woman. But, if I just breathe and not assume, let the explanation carry itself, I might possibly not freak out the next time it happens. It is basically learning to tell your brain not to think what it normally does. So, all in all, I think it is a good film for people like me with actual mental instability, it might help someone else relearn to react differently.

Conversion disorder is a rare psychiatric illness in which emotional stress or conflict is expressed through physical symptoms, such as blindness or paralysis. Conversion disorder is a type of somatoform disorder, in which symptoms suggest a medical illness, yet no medical condition can be identified to explain the symptoms.\n\nSome people may intentionally fake symptoms to avoid stressful situations. But this is not a conversion disorder. People with conversion disorder actually do experience the physical symptoms. Common signs of a conversion disorder include:\n\nSudden onset of physical symptoms \nRecent history of a stressful experience \nInappropriate lack of concern over the physical symptoms \nA doctor will likely perform a physical examination to rule out physical causes for the symptoms. Treatment is directed at resolving the underlying emotional conflict or stress in order to make the symptoms disappear. This may include:\n\nStress management counseling \nMedication \nPsychotherapy

Escape from Sobibor is a good one.\n\nLittle Dieter Needs To Fly is also worth seeing.

I am not sure what you want exactly, but if you are looking for a movie that shows how someone continues to adapt to fit into society you might try Bicentennial Man.  It is PG.

You need to try 'Airplane'. It is really the most funny movie ever ever made. Excellent cast, joyful dialogues and 1 punch line per minute: an spoof comedy from 1980 that was copied afterward 1,000 times!

BLUE STREAK -\n\nIts funny to an extent. However, you need to be a Martin Lawrence fan to enjoy this movie. For someone who finds him irritating, the movie insn't enjoyable
