![]() ![]() ![]() Some symptoms are apparent but it’s not the heart of the film, which is fine. It’s particularly notable that this film doesn’t lean on the depiction of Stuart’s Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy. After the last two weeks, I almost felt as though there was a defined formula for MD movies but this is really different to anything we’ve covered. I knew next to nothing about this film going in. I think most people have preconceptions and associate disability, especially Muscular Dystrophy, with the use of a wheelchair, when in fact that isn’t necessarily true. There is no visible sign of a physical disability. ![]() Initially, you would not think this film is about a man with Muscular Dystrophy. The movie poster shows the two main characters played by Tom Hardy and Benedict Cumberbatch sitting on a wall. To be honest, I hadn’t even heard of it until Joe and I were researching films about Muscular Dystrophy. I must admit I didn’t go into this film as excited as I did with the previous two week’s films. ![]()
