USA: Mad To Be Normal Released On DVD Today



Mad To Be Normal starring David Tennant is released on Region 1 DVD in the USA today. David gives an award-winning performance as the controversial Scottish psychiatrist RD Laing in the film which premiered at the Glasgow Film Festival last year.

The movie is based upon Laing's revolutionary work during the 1960s when he set up a medication-free treatment facility in London for people experiencing mental illness. The Kingsley Hall project allowed patients and medical staff to live alongside each other as equals and promoted talking therapies that encouraged patients to work through their psychosis. Although dismissed as dangerous by his peers at the time, Laing's methods went on to shape how mental health interventions are managed today. Elisabeth Moss, Gabriel Byrne and Michael Gambon also star. Mad To Be Normal was written and directed by Robert Mullan and produced by Gizmo Films with Bad Penny Productions, GSP Studios and LipSync.
