    Seeing the scene where mary almost commits suicide is the most emotion i have ever felt in a movie. This movie is amazing

      That part got me too. When she was reaching for the Valium I actually gasped and went "Nonono!"

      great movie, the the scene that got me the most is the ending. when they finally got to meat. when the camera panned to the roof i lost it.

    I thought it was great. I wish they could have met .... but it sort of goes with the theme that he would pass away but she would be in a strong enough mental state to appreciate all they did have and gotten.

    • @BenEleven1127
      @BenEleven1127  Год назад +3

      Yeah I agree with that. I think that it's saddening of course that they didn't get to officially meet, but it's also cool to see Mary come to terms with all the memories and impact they had on each other throughout the film after seeing him passed away on the couch.

    This movie touches my heart because me, an autistic kid who got very uneasy around new situations. Got easily scared of things that shouldn't even scare me. I see myself in Max's shoes of going through life as someone with autism or even someone with Asperger syndrome.
    I recommend this movie for anyone who has autism or Asperger.

      That is actually so awesome to me that someone who's actually experienced autism can sign off on the film's realism as well. Glad you were able to get something out of the film as well!

    i used to like this movie as a kid (even tho i definitely shouldnt be watching it alone as a kid) and when i got diagnosed with autism as an adult, it became so much more meaningful and special to me. i think it's the only movie I've seen where i felt like my experiences are seen and portrayed THIS accurately.

    I'm a typical youtuber who mostly just watches a video and hardly interacts with the creator. But I wanted to leave a thank you for giving your review of Mary and Max. I saw this film in my home time of Melbourne, where this film is set in. And someone who grew up bullied at school and feeling an outcast, I feel head first in love with this film. I watched this film when I was back in Melbourne, almost 15 years later. And to see how this film has an impact with an audience to this day, it amazes me. And to hear over people's experience with this film, and make great content about it really gives me a lot of joy. Thank you so much! And I also really appreciate how you also share your own experiences with your audience. Thank you so much for that

    I'm super late, but this video is so lovely, the editing, the quality, sad that it didn't get more attention aaa. But I love this movie so freaking much, made me cry, and the creator? Geez my favourite dude, never met him of course, but his story telling like, makes my heart cry.
    Thank you for making this video, thank you.

    I watched this movie when it came out, I was 21, didn't really understand myself at the time, nor the movie
    Yes it was nice and touching and goofy, I recognized the production value and effort, but it didn't resonate with me that much
    15 years later, with diagnosed autism and OCD and whole wagon of sh*t I was lucky to be presented by life, this movie hits differently.
    Thanks for the review, man

    • @BenEleven1127

    "I'm thinking of ending things" is one of my favorite films! Oh and I love Mary and Max and eventually plan to buy it....I was surprised you only gave it a 6 out of ten given how highly you praised it.

      Lol, also the 6 out of 10 was definitely a joke I'd unironically give Mary and Max a 10/10

  • @vixymix101
    @vixymix101 12 дней назад

    As someone who grew up bullied, especially bc of my disability (ADHD and autism) and my interests, the film rlly resonated with me, especially with how it kinda forces you to face the discomfort of imperfection.
    Self acceptance isnt just accepting your strengths, its accepting your weaknesses as well-- you arent perfect, thats impossible to be, people have their flaws, i can be stubborn, brash, and forgetful at times, i make mistakes, i have my flaws--
    But we must accept our dents and bumps, and work with them as apart of us and do what we can to be the best people we can possibly be, not worry about the flaws to the point it takes us over, but remember that we can work through them to be better people and connect with others.
