The range of mental health services available in the 60s was very different than it is now. The reality that seeing people having to navigate diagnosis and what's covered and what's not as part of their reality when they're struggling with behaviors are obviously causing disruption in multiple areas of life, as well as causing problems for the parents or school system.
We are finally discussing our first Wes Anderson movie, Moonrise Kingdom! We focus on the two main characters, Suzy and Sam. We break down the movie’s idea of an “emotionally disturbed child” and discuss the following topics: intermittent explosive disorder, oppositional defiant disorder; as well as the significant impact of both characters’ home lives on their presentation in the world. So put on your khaki scout uniform and your favorite French pop record and join us!
