Asperger's in the Theater

Asperger's, movies, Temple Grandin, Adam, Mary and Max
A friend forwarded me this New York Times article about 3 films dealing with the subject of Asperger's. Adam is a romance involving a man with Asperger's and a woman who moves upstairs from him. Mary and Max is an indie film about a 20 year pen-pal relationship. Temple Grandin's biopic will be released on HBO next year. Here's a link to the article & I encourage you to check out the films if you can.

Asperger’s Syndrome, on Screen and in Life

If you've seen Adam, I'd love to hear your thoughts on the movie!

  4. I really enjoyed the movie "Mozart and The Whale" also, which is a true story of two Aspies in love.
