Michael Robotham's protagonist is a psychologist with PD. If you like mysteries or thrillers, they're good (he has a series). https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/477362.Suspect

In terms of movies, I thought of Awakenings, but found this, which had some good ideas, too. https://www.everydayhealth.com/parkinsons-disea...
