Episode notes

The next part of this episode we're going to be examining the way that grief is portrayed. autism spectrum disorder is a tremendous part of oscar's story there's also how he resolves grief which drives the plot. Oscar can't heal because shame is blocking him from being able to feel what he feels and watching him go through that journey i thought was beautifully illustrated in this film i don't know if you guys saw the same thing but i saw that"

On the 20th anniversary of 9/11 we discuss the tragically beautiful Academy Award nominated film Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close. In this episode we discuss the unique journey of Oskar Schell as he processes the life changing event of losing the person who understood him best in the world while simultaneously living through the collective trauma of the September 11th attacks. We are joined by special guests Dr. David Paltin who is an expert in Neuro-Atypical Presentations and Andrew Rubin who is the president of Symptom Media.
