I have yet to find a portrait of life and mental illness as powerful and de-stigmatising as the deep and important saga of Mary and Max.
Very sad and affecting stop-motion drama about the correspondence between a girl and a man who become good friends
It has been four years since I first watched this movie, and it really has left an impression on me.
My aunt made me watch it when I first got my aspergers diagnosis. Sure was nice and relatable.
Very poignant and sad. A poetic tale on loneliness, friendship and life in general. Great animation and voice acting.
Cute animation film. Seems gloomy at the beginning, but is definitely not overall.
A wonderful movie that doesn't look like it at first
Beautiful story, with amazing art. Makes you laugh, cry and assess your life.
Sad unexpectedly great film. Do watch it when you are most emotionally stable please.
The overall feeling of this movie is bittersweet, full of moments that make you want to think, cry and smile.
