'Mozart and the Whale' Movie Trailer

Following up my previous post, here is the trailer for Mozart and the Whale starring Josh Hartnett and Radha Mitchell, written by Ronald Bass and directed by Petter Næss.

It may not be the most authentic and true to life of Aspergers related films - personally I found Adam to be better in that regard - and it may have its flaws, but it is nonetheless an extremely charming and moving film that any Autistic person who has ever felt out of place in the world should not fail to be moved and inspired by, and it does a pretty job of both representing the difficulties that Autistic adults face frequently and also being pretty entertaining as well.

'Mozart and the Whale' Movie Poster

This is the movie poster for the film 'Mozart and the Whale' starring Josh Hartnett and Radha Mitchell, written by Ronald Bass and directed by Petter Næss.

Based on the lives of Jerry and Mary Newport it presents a fictionalised account of how the two met, fell in love and got married. As it is a fictionalised account with the names changed it should be taken to represent the true story - that is told in the book 'Mozart and the Whale: An Asperger's Love Story' which came after the film - but it is nonetheless a charming film that is well worth a watch.
