The inner world of man is deep and completely unknown. Each individual, differing in individual character, possesses only his inherent gamut of emotions, desires, feelings. Based on them, a line of behavior is formed and certain actions are performed, which the directors often talk about, making psychological films with meaning. The list of the best paintings is impossible to name: in any case, it will be subjective. Despite this, there are chic cinema works that are liked by all viewers without exception.

The list of the best films - films with a meaning - I want to start with a dramatic picture with elements of Western and adventure "Survivor" (2015). The main role was amazingly played by Leonardo DiCaprio. He got a little text. Despite this, with just one glance, emotions, facial expressions, he showed the inner world of a man who was left alone with the mighty power of nature. This is not only a film about survival in hungry and cold conditions, but also a deep psychological work that tells about a person’s desire to live and restore justice.
The fantastic drama Superiority (2014) and the thriller Anesthesia (2015) are the best psychological films. The list ^ “New Psychological Films” is supplemented by their interesting plot. The first picture tells about how a person degrades in an era of prosperity of digital mechanisms, robots and machines. The second is about the intersection of the lives of several people, which became possible only due to one random event. Among the new psychological films released on the big screens in 2015, one should single out Mojave, Why Why Me? and "Office."
Real-Life Movies
They amaze with thoughtless events that, on the one hand, could happen in everyday life, on the other hand, seem impossible, because they differ in notes of unreality and fiction. Psychological films with a sense that are worth watching tell about the experiences of people who have fallen into serious and difficult circumstances. One of these is the picture “The Sea Inside” (2004) - about the life of a paralyzed person who is seeking the right to euthanasia. The audience’s reviews indicate that the plot line skillfully shows how a disabled person gradually opens up a seething source of emotions and desires, which changes his depressive reality.
The list of good films based on real stories of people includes the famous melodramatic “Hachiko” (2009) with Richard Gere in the title role. He talks not only about the loyalty and devotion of the dog, but also about a man who is not capable of experiencing similar feelings for his own kind. It is also worth looking at such paintings as “Last Chance” (2009), “Roundup” (2010), “Reason” (2012) and others.
Good thrillers
It is impossible to accurately determine the deepest psychological films with meaning: the list of the best paintings by critics is called cautiously, since each work is original, sensual and emotional in its own way. For example, the thriller Remember (2000), which is characterized by a shocking ending. The plot is based on a story about a person suffering from memory disorders. A man puts on his body a tattoo in the form of the most important events in life. A mysterious and confusing picture suggests that a person is obliged to be responsible for committed acts: it does not matter whether he remembers them or not.
Speaking of films with
deep meaning, the list can be continued with The Black Swan (2010) with Natalie Portman in the title role. Her heroine Nina is a ballerina who is tired of constant intrigues and eternal rivalry. They break the girl’s mind, make her depressed. Will the dancer overcome obstacles, the audience will know at the end of the picture. By the way, both ordinary people and professional critics also advise viewing “Leon” (1994), “Telephone Box” (2002), “The Illusion of Deception” (2013). They are also good thrillers.
Psychological horrors
They are bloody and cruel. Despite this, even among the horrors you can find the best psychological films that are worth seeing. These certainly include the painting "Seven" (1995), shot by David Fincher. The main characters are a couple of policemen unraveling the terrible crimes. A maniac “plays” with them, who decided to kill his victims not just like that, but illustrating every crime. Like Dante Alighieri, who described the seven deadly sins of mankind, he begins to "weave canvas" from the bodies of people who died as a result of similar vices.
In contrast to the film “Seven”, the picture “Saw” (2004) is even more ruthless and psychologically intense. The psychopath secretly catches people who lead the wrong lifestyle and locks them in an abandoned building. Heroes find themselves in an insidious trap from which you can only get out by sacrificing a part of your body. What are people capable of chasing their own freedom and longing for a legitimate right to life? It is precisely these secrets of human psychology that the audience will learn while watching.
Dramas
Among them there are also psychological films with meaning. The list of the best is headed by the picture “Captives” (2013) - the story of the abduction of two little girls. Critics praised the directorial work of Danny Villeneuve, calling it a ball of passion. The storyline shows the grief and despair of the parents. What are they talking about to bring the children back? Yes, everything, even a fierce crime. The denouement is not original, but the whole picture keeps the viewer in suspense until the last minute.
The category “Psychological Films with a Meaning Worth Watching” also includes the film “Interrupted Life” (1999). The main character with a diagnosis of "borderline state" ends up in a psychiatric hospital, where she gets acquainted with the way of life of crazy people, their thoughts and experiences. Each has its own story, which ultimately made him broken and helpless. Life dramaturgy is well disclosed not only in these paintings, but also in other psychological dramas: “With You and Without You” (2001), “When Shots Shut Down” (2002) and “Northanger Abbey” (2006).
Melodrama
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004) is on the list of best films. There are a lot of films with meaning, but this one is characterized by emotional psychedelia and a pessimistic mood. In addition, this is one of the few works where the always cheerful Jim Carrey can be seen in a dramatic role. Viewers and critics praised his reincarnation: the film received an Academy Award for the most original screenplay. Be sure to look at this picture, which tells that true love cannot be eradicated from the heart and memory of a person under any circumstances.
“Match Point” (2005) is Woody Allen’s amazing melodrama with elements of a thriller and a detective story. In the center of the plot is a story about a former tennis player. He is trying to adequately settle in life. And he would have succeeded if it had not been for a meeting with a sexy woman named Nola. By the way, she was played by Scarlett Johansson. Observance of intrigue, witty turn of events, ironic finale - the highlight of this melodrama.

Detectives
Mandatory to watch and criminal films with a deep meaning. The list presented in this article is continued by a bright and extraordinary picture called “Identification” (2003).

Heroes die one by one at the hands of an unknown killer. “The truth is revealed only at the end of the film, and it is surprising,” viewers write in the comments.

When listing psychological films with meaning, the list of the best films should be supplemented by the work of director Brian de Palma. "Black Orchid", released in 2006, hit the audience with a complicated story of the murder of a Hollywood actress. This real event that happened in the 40s of the last century is still not fully disclosed. The main characters - two cops - are trying to investigate the most intriguing and mysterious crime in the history of Hollywood.
Pictures with an unexpected denouement
One of the best in this category is the painting “Island of the Damned” (2007). In the center of the story are two federal detectives who arrived on a piece of land forgotten by God. Detectives are investigating the disappearance of a girl patient in a psychiatric hospital located on the island. One of them does not even suspect that he will need not only to reveal a mysterious story, but also to fight the ruthless elements, confrontation with themselves.
