"Behind the Mask" (1999) NR

Based on the real-life experiences of Dr. Robert Shushan and James Jones, Behind the Mask depicts the unlikely bond that is formed when two dissimilar men find that they can help each other in unexpected but much-needed ways. The story begins when Shushan (Donald Sutherland) suffers a sudden heart attack at his clinic, and Jones (Matthew Fox), a disturbed young patient, is there to save his life.

I enjoyed this movie about a patient who struggles to be normal and like other people. We get glimpses of his inner-self and the support and trust given him by the Doctor.
