The 30 Best Movies About Depression

"Even though once considered taboo, depression is a common theme in cinema and so is a central subject in many great films. This list narrows the huge spectrum of unhappiness by limiting it to endogenous depression and that caused by traumatic experiences, bad relationships, or anxiety." - Taste of Cinema
Perhaps not a light summertime list of movies to watch, but a great list nonetheless. How many of these films have you already seen?
