List of films featuring diabetes

There is a body of films that feature diabetes as a major or minor characteristic. In the late twentieth century, most films' references to diabetes were minor, though diabetes "played a more significant role" in films like Steel Magnolias and Panic Room. Dr. Kevin L. Ferguson investigated such films in the Journal of Medical Humanities and reported, "Films that represent diabetes must work around the disease's banal invisibility, and images of diabetics in film are especially susceptible to metaphor and exaggeration." Everyday Health reported, "Sometimes, filmmakers get it wrong: mixing up different types of diabetes, imagining symptoms or complications that aren't accurate, or unfairly portraying another aspect of the condition."
