As I continue readingMarcelo In the Real World by Francisco X. Stork I have also begun watching the show Atypical. This show's main character is Sam, who seeks more independence. Atypical is a coming of age story that follows Sam, an 18-year-old on the autistic spectrum as he searches for love and independence (https://m.imdb.com/title/tt6315640/plotsummary) As I continue to watch this show I will analyze the portrayal of Sam and see if it is an accurate representation of an ASD.
Is he an actor? Or is this a documentary-type film?
ReplyDeleteThe role of Sam is played by Keir Gilchrist which is why I am including this in my analysis of the fictional portayal of ASDs.
