I had a conversation recently with some friends about Dustin Hoffman's character in Rain Man regarding autism and savant that was very interesting.

Private Pyle - Full metal jacket

when the marine corps boot camp protocol of "breaking them down to build them back up" causes the subject to completely break emotionally, disassociate from reality and elicits the unintended consequence of the Drill Instructor's actions

It's not a movie, but Monk has lots of psychological issues all stemming from the death of his wife. Phobias and he is ocd as well.
