He is immediately arrested again for being unable to pay a restaurant bill, and his brother bails him out and sets him up with a menial job and a place to live.

I will provide bolded links as the titles for each disability, which will lead you to the external list. January 2011 UPDATE: I’m attempting to make the list more aesthetically pleasing by creating separate pages for separate topics. If you can think of any films that I should add, let me know.ĭisclaimer: I know that there is a lot of controversy surrounding whether or not deafness is a disability, but for the sake of this list, I will include films such as Children of a Lesser God and Sound and Fury, because they are very important films on their respective areas regarding communication barriers. I will try to categorize the list as best I can. As a number of these films are not on The Auteurs, I will try to find a YouTube video or something for the ones not on here yet. One of them suggested that I compile a list of these films and other related films as somewhat of a project. Beginning about a year ago (Spring 2010), I have been letting professors in my department borrow films that I own. I am an undergraduate Communication Sciences and Disorders major at my university and am also a fan of film (obviously). July 19 - I began working on the Alzheimer’s section. JULY 2013 EDIT - I am going section by section trying to clean the list up and finally create sub-lists for all the categories.
