La película nos acerca a la realidad de quienes tienen esa condición especial como lo es el autismo y todo lo que significa vivir con esa dificultad para comunicarse con su entorno; el choque con esta sociedad donde deben luchar por ser aceptados y ni se diga lo que los familiares deben vivir, adaptarse y hacer para apoyarles en su lucha personal para que puedan desarrollarse y lograr adaptarse al medio que les rodea. La protagonista Dakota Fanning hizo una super representación de su papel como esa Joven que desea lograr su objetivo con herramientas que su condición le permite, incluso salir de su zona de confort para lograr su sueño; se metió en su personaje y nos hizo en el transcurrir de la película sufrir, reírnos, llorar, sentir odio ante la indolencia de otros y alegría al ver sus pequeños y grandes logros. Bravo por esta bella y aleccionadora película y por su protagonista que lo hizo con profesionalismo y sencillez que el papel le exigía. - @Friday, June 22, 2018 11:40 AM

This is high functioning autism. Plus this movie is just another feminist garbage. - @Tuesday, February 20, 2018 7:08 AM

Hello guys, i'm autistic myself. Autistic or other "disabled" people should be played by autistic or "disabled" people! Not by neurotypicals. It's just insulting and patronizing if autistic people are played by neurotypicals. Even if a "name" means funding. Movie companies have collected hundred when not even trillions of Dollars, plus attention and compliments with obviously autistic characters or characters with autistic traits. Same is for other "disabled" people. It's time that the so called disabled themselves are getting included! It's good that there are more and more TV-shows and movies with "disabled" persons, because with that, Neurotypicals can familiarize with (fictional) autists or other "disabled persons" and some kind of their behaviour, which will spread awareness for them. But: The "disabled" themselves are still excluded. Don't play me pay me! And also have a nice day. ;) For further information see the links below. Please like so that hopefully somebody with influence can see this information. Thank you.

This looks like a good one to catch. I might add it to my favorites, most of which are about odd people living unusual, off the wall lives...but if the dog dies in this movie...I'll be back and it won't be pretty. - @Friday, February 2, 2018 6:35 PM

For those who are complaining Dakota lost her talent: she talks without emotion in this film because she is playing an autistic girl. Many autists talk like this, monocordantly. - @Friday, January 12, 2018 6:43 PM
