Brilliant
Magnificently clever and utterly original
A wonderful, intricate and hilarious account of what it's like for a woman with Autism. I love her unashamed anger, her eloquence and a seriously funny narrative woven to perfection. I laughed until my cheeks hurt, recognising all the little pieces of myself in her portrayal. In that recognition I found myself taking a sigh of relief to see a representation on screen I could finally relate to. It was new and exhilarating. Her format is unique, utterly innovative and honest. I love it.
My only qualm would be that it's filmed in America. I think a British or Australian audience would have needed less handholding from Hannah...the clapping to the dog name case in point...some of the really clever nuance was a little sideswiped but it doesn't detract from an incredibly funny and impressive show. Just a joy...I'm off to watch it again...
