I'm a bit late responding to Lang Thompson's question (been out of town),
but two films come to mind, one of which has already been mentioned.
However, I'll mention it again, since there seems to be a connection in
both of "unreliability" as madness.  Gilliam's _Brazil_ is one, and the
other is the Quebecois film _Leolo_ (can't remember the director's name).
Both have narrators who go insane at the end, though Leolo's is more
explicit, since there is a voice over that periodically interjects itself
throughout the film.
