Adam
Adam tells the story of a man with Asperger's syndrome who develops a relationship with his neighbor Beth. Hugh Dancy was fun as Buddy in the under-appreciated movie Evening and absolutely nails this performance so well, you would think her truly has Asperger's syndrome. The relationship between Adam and Harlan (Frankie Faison), an old family friend who watches over Adam after his parent's die is heart-warming. The relationship between Adam and Beth (Rose Byrne) is at times all of the following: comical, heart-warming, heart-wrenching and sad. For this reviewer, it was also personal for reasons I will not divulge in this forum. I give this a wonderful two thumbs up hoping for more fund-raising and especially understanding in the research of Asperger's syndrome and other Autism spectrum disorders.
