I watched Mary & Max the claymation animation for maybe the 17th time yesterday.
In a random Google search this morning I came across an 'Autism Anthem' - a YouTube compilation of film clips from:
Skins, The Good Doctor, Power Rangers, The Accountant, Scorpion, Parent Hood, Jane Wants A Boy Friend, The Story of Luke, Jack of the Red Hearts, Atypical, The 4400, Girl Meets World

What do you think of attempts to portray autism in these, or any other, films or TV programmes?
Are there any accurate, positive, helpful representations of autistic people?
I'd love to know your thoughts!
Saga Norén (Länskrim Malmö) from The Bridge.
Oh yes, I absolutely loved watching her performance - one of the things that influenced me to have an assessment myself. Have you watched all of the series? I only watched a recent one so I have some catching up to do.
Yes, I have. I've also actually been across that bridge by train.
Wow! How wonderful. I would really like to go there one day.
