Review of Mary and Max (2009) by Lateef R — 31 Aug 2012
What makes a "Top Critic?" Soul? Heart? Smarts? I don't have these answers. But I do know this. Anyone who has EVER struggled with a disability longs to be normal. Longs to be able to fit in.
Longs for both love and acceptance. Longs to be able to laugh normal. Talk normal. And above all else THINK normal. This movie was brilliant. From the bubbles in the tub popping when Max is reviewing his goals, to the predominant use of the color red for emphasis.
Then there is Mary's birthmark ... the color of "poo." I'm no "Top Critic." In my "humble" opinion ... sans the word "Top" and "Critic," I think this film is "Agnificent.
" It's also "Beautamiburst" meaning full of beauty that bursts from your soul.
