“The Professor and the Madman” a movie

I’m watching this movie. It portrays PTSD perfectly. Especially when untreated. One of the main characters (Sean Penn) suffers from post war trauma. However, he exhibits empathy while jailed for murder. The movie is also about the evolution of the English Dictionary. It’s intriguing.
Maybe I should’ve posted this somewhere else, but I think that there is conversation to be had here.
Sean Penn’s character is very interesting. He is haunted by trauma. Anyone else seen it?

There were old stigmas and psychiatry wasn’t evolved to the point where we are now. Too be quite honest, I don’t think that psychiatry should be necessary. It’s a product of a dysfunctional society. However, being a member of this society, I find the support very helpful.
