My favourite Movie (Mozart and the whale)





Mozart and the whale is the most gorgeous movie ever.
It’s a story about to adults that suffer from
Asperger's Syndrome (a form of autism).
Donald runs a group for people with Autism, so that those that have worse off autism than he has can find the comfort they need. Isabelle has had the self help group recommended to her. She attends the meeting and be-friends Donald.

Most Autistic people have another sort of amazing talent, which average people can’t do.
Donald has an amazing ability with numbers, every moment of they day he is thinking up equations in his mined. Equations that people need to use a calculator to answer he can answer in seconds. He’ll turn anything in life into an equation.
Isabelle is creative. She can listen to music and write down the notes being played as the song player. At the same time as doing this she’ll have a paint brush in her other hand, and will be painted an amazing picture.

On Halloween they dress up as the things they truly are.
Donald dresses up as a Whale, because whales and he think “they are watching a parade but really they are the parade. “
Izzy dresses up as Mozart, because of her love for Mozart and her musical ability.
This is why the movie is called “Mozart and the Whale”

As there relationship grows they learn the ways each other are affected by their disorder.
Donald can’t handle change and he likes everything left where he left them. For example when Isabelle decided to clean his house, which at the time was filthy. She sorted out all his belongings and made his apartment look clean and tidy. Instead of the thankful reaction she expected of him, he was furious. Telling her “she’d stolen his life.”

Donald and Izzy fall in love, but there’s always something stopping their relationship to go further.
The movie shows the effects on people with Asperser’s Syndrome, and it really makes you realize that they shouldn’t be judged just because they are different. They are
amazing talented people, with just as much right to be in society as we are.

Donald is played by Josh Hartnett.
Izzy is played by
Radha Mitchell.

This movie is so SOOOOOO cute!!
