this movie did not do that. From a clinical standpoint‚ The Soloist is one of the few movies that accurately depicts schizophrenia. Before we meet Nathanial‚ before seeing his disheveled appearance and his disorganized life‚ we’re introduced to something pure – Nathanial’s music. I think this is an integral part of the movie‚ which helps the viewer to understand that while it’s easy to judge a person battling schizophrenia‚ there needs to be unbiased approaches.

If I told you a movie made with an iPhone was better than most of the mainstream movies in Hollywood‚ would you believe me? If you don’t believe me then get on Netflix and watch Tangerine. The movie is rowdy‚ unconventional‚ and silly but at the same time‚ it’s exuberant‚ colorful and beautiful.

It’s amazing how Sean Baker can create a movie with such a low budget

Viewers come away from the film sad and in tears from the final scene but because the disorder played a very inconsequential piece of the movie I don’t think they would think much about dementia.
