Missing the social cues

Jane Wants a Boyfriend (2015)

Directed by William Sullivan this film stars Louisa Krause, Eliza Dushku, Gabriel Ebert and Amir Arison. A young woman with Aspergers wants love and more freedom in her life.

While Lousia Krause gives a decent performance in the lead role I do not know enough about Aspergers to say how accurate her performance or the script are. What I can say is that the script is a bit heavy handed with some wobbly dialogue. Sticking out most is the characters of the parents who seem to have little interest in what happens to their daughter which does not seem right as they are not portrayed as negligent parents.


2/5
