Mary and Max
Mary and Max: Directed and written by Adam Elliot, narrated by Barry Humphries, voiced by Phillip Seymour Hoffman, Toni Collette, Eric Banna, & Bethany Whitmore.
* I do not own this fantastic movie, “Mary and Max��� is owned by Melodrama Pictures & Gaumont.
Synopsis I stole from Google because I simply cannot put this film into a worthy synopsis: Spanning twenty years and two continents, Mary and Max recounts the pen-pal relationship between two very different people: Mary Dinkle, a chubby, lonely eight-year-old living in the suburbs of Melbourne, Australia; and Max Horovitz, a severely obese, 44-year-old man with Asperger’s Syndrome living in the chaos of New York City.
Review thingy: This movie received 1.7 million at the box office. The Emoji movie made 217.8 million. Fuck this world. Mary and Max is a movie that truly feels like it happened. Which would make sense since it was loosely based on a true story. You can tell this claymation narrated film was made very passionately. It has a feeling of great emotion and care throughout. The story is phenomenal, and you grow to truly resonate and relate to the characters. It has quirky humor weaving through the movie, and the characters, though all strange and with their own faults, they are realistic and you could easily imagine finding one of them in the real world. The artistic approach is very different and it definitely breaks the mold of what to do and not to do with claymation and I hope and believe that this film will influence its genre and its art form. It raises awareness and understanding of Asperger’s Syndrome, the symptoms, and how beings who have been diagnosed with this predicament come to cope with it. This movie has touched me deeply, and it will not be forgotten by me anytime soon. I highly recommend this drama/indie film. The art style might not be for everyone, and I’d say not to watch it if you aren’t under fourteen, unless you believe you are very mature. This wonderful movie can have 10/10 chocolates.
Okay, now to write my review of the movie, “Call Me By Your Name” that no one will read kay bye-bye!
