3.0 out of 5 stars NOT about autism, October 25, 2009

I am a college professor of disability studies, and I bought this DVD to add to my collection of films about disabilities. In this case, the title came up when I was searching for a film on autism. This film is NOT about autism. If you are seeking a film about autism, do not purchase this one.

This IS a powerful film in the tradition of Eudora Welty, Flannery O'Connor and other Southern gothic writers who portrayed a strong sense of place peopled with grotesque characters. It has won several film awards. However, it is decidely not about autism.

Things That Hang from Trees

Odd, haunting little gem. Not much plot but excellent acting and definitely food for thought!

It is an intense, sad and a make you think movie. I enjoyed it. I purchased it because my son, Jason Antoon, was in it. He played the pharmacist. It is not a fast paced movie.
