No wayyyyyyy. I think that Jane Eyre is the best female role model in all of literature (not that her having Asperger's would preclude this, but that I've thought a lot about her character). I totally disagree but am very interested in hearing what has led you to this conclusion!

I read "Penelope" by Rebecca Harrington. LOVED IT. This is such a weird, original and delightful book. It's laugh out loud funny. It's about this girl with Asperger's syndrome (weirdly, this isn't mentioned anywhere on the internet, but she really does have it I think) who goes to Harvard and meets the worst people in

I agree with everyone else. I love Anthony Perkins and if you do too they're definitely worth watching. Psycho II is a good thriller with a great ending and I also like Psycho IV a decent amount. I don't think I saw Psycho III.

Yeah, same. Olivia Hussey is hot as Mrs. Bates in Psycho IV, though.

I find the birth scene in "In Darkness" incredibly horrifying, memorable and chilling. (Also what happens after.) That whole sequence is the perfect encapsulation and recapitulation of the horror and impossibility for human life in those circumstances, the subject of the entire movie.

It's great how they show the whole monster early. It has such an awesome presence. It's terrifying because of how deadly it is, but it's also really real, and I love the way it scampers in this almost cute way at times. It's the most realistic monster I've ever seen in a movie, I think.

Yeah, that is so great. I love the way it just runs through the trailer.

I can see your point. I've been to Krakow and Auschwitz in the snow, it's very elegiac and striking. It's been hot everywhere I've been in the last couple weeks, all I can think about are the rail cars.

I think the book is fantastic and really love it - many people don't, though, finding it sentimental or maudlin. I just think it's emotional, which I like, but not everyone does. I haven't seen the movie though I am just a little curious to, though I think it's supposed to be universally terrible even for fans of the
