The A Word
Excellent portrait of the family of an Autistic child. Both the humor and the tragedy of having a special child are dealt with in a style that is enjoyable to all. Educational for those not familiar with Autism and the Spectrum and hopefully enlightening to many who watch this excellent production. Plus, there is the beautiful backdrop of The Lake District to enhance the performances! I'll be purchasing the DVD once it has been released for Region One. hcc
