"I Am Sam" Gets It Right
A review by Dave Reynolds, Inclusion Daily Express
January 23, 2002
This past weekend, I caught the sneak preview of "I am Sam".
I liked it. A lot.
This movie gives as accurate a portrayal as you will ever find of a parent
with a disability caught in the legal and social service systems. It is also
a movie that explores deeply and with humor what it means to be a "good"
parent -- and an authentic human being.
What impact will this movie likely have on the viewers' attitudes toward
people with developmental disabilities, particularly those who are parents?
