In this article Emotions in Schizophrenia: Old mystery new understanding by Ann M. Kring. He writes "Schizophrenia patients report experiencing strong emotions in response to emotional material, yet they do not often report experiencing strong pleasant in daily life" Schizophrenia patients present more emotions on materialized things, for example if a patient see's an object or is hallucination, they will present strong emotions in that because they believe what they see is real. In the movie A beautiful Mind, John Nash shows strong and emerging emotions when he is talking to his imaginary friend. In his daily life, he has a straight face and does not explore much emotions on what he does.

Are Hollywood flims accurate?
Hollywood films are very fun to watch and much entertainment is provided in them. When it comes to its accuracy, I believe some parts of the movie are accurate but they exaggerate those part to make it more creative and enjoyable to watch. Not everything in real life is fun and if movies provided realistic facts, the movie would not be hit or enjoyable for viewers to watch. Much drama and wildness is provided in Hollywood movies which does not make it accurate.

Today's class really helped me look forward to writing Milestone #3. I have a lot to work on, and the hand-outs provided in class will definitely direct me in writing an revised Milestone #2 and start up of Milestone #3. Much research is ahead of me and watching the movie The Beautiful Mind this weekend will help me improve my thesis.

"Sharing a Research Source"
For my topic Schizophrenia, my major source is the movie A Beautiful Mind
While the portrayal of schizophrenia in the character of John Nash in Ron Howards A Beautiful Mind is inspiring and fascinating, based on several scholarly articles, I will argue the real treatment of schizophrenia based on how reality views it now than how it is portrayed in the film.
