3-Forrest Gump
Recently there was a bollywood movie names *MY NAME IS KHAN*. The main Character of the movie was suffering from a disorder,Details of the disorder eludes me but what i do remember is that the man had below normal IQ ...But i guess this concept was stolen from the 1994's epic Hollywood movie named Forrest gump.The Boy named FORREST GUMP had below Normal IQ level(75) and this movie depicts how he lived his life and passed through various phases of life but his life mostly revolved around his one and only childhood friend named *JENNY*..An epic and must watch...It might change your prespective of how you look at life..
As IMDB.com says
*  Forrest Gump, while not intelligent, has accidentally been present at many historic moments, but his true love, Jenny, eludes him. *

The world will never seem same once you've seen it through the eyes of... Forrest Gump.
