Adam

Rating: 8
Time: 1:39
Starring: Hugh Darey, Rose Byrne, Peter Gallagher
Genre Romance and Mature Comedy

Adam is a young man afflicted with Asperger Syndrome (usually an inability to understand nuances and often clumsiness in social situations). Beth moves into his apartment building. She begins to care about him and helps him around awkward relationships. The romance has a genuine feel about it, and the movie builds into a very interesting ending. The role of Beth's father, played by Peter Gallagher, is integral to the story. This one was a pleasant surprise. Unlike many movies where you don't really empathize with the major characters, here you hope both to be winners.
