I am positively smitten by Adam, a new romantic comedy featuring a young man with Asperger’s who navigates a relationship with his new neighbor, a Neurotypical “NT” woman. Having seen it twice, I’m eager to see it again.
ASAP is going to head out as a group to see Adam soon, since it’s now showing on screens in Ventura County. I’ve asked our members if they prefer to see it this Saturday, August 22 or Tuesday evening August 25 and it looks like Tuesday is winning out. An email will go out Friday to let our membership know more about the movie outing.
Adam is not for every young adult Aspie, however. If the Aspie teen or young adult in your life is not ready to discuss having romantic relationships or is very sensitive about certain subject matters, you may want to screen the movie first. And I highly recommend that all parents, grandparents and other supporters see this film.
Watch the trailer here: http://www.foxsearchlight.com/adam/ and hopefully we’ll see you at the movies soon!
