You're a lifer. LOL
That really is the status quo. For almost all disabilities. I auditioned for a series here in Europe a few years back and despite making it to the final round, I lost the role to a neurotypical person for being "not convincingly autistic enough" (Translation: I didn't show all the cliche freak show tropes they were expecting). And it was the same when I auditioned for blind people. Unless you are crashing face first into walls, you apperently "don't look blind".
But as I said, it is a poorly concealed cash grab. Autism is the hot tit that guarantees a nice paycheck. And the current controversy doesn't hurt either. As my boss says: Sia might as well call the protagonist "Greta" or "Carly" and be done with it.

Preach! (Also, just for the record, not all autistic people are like Sheldon and Rain Main, lmao)
Well it's all about authentic representation, autistic people feel like Sia just made a costume. Acting is playing a character, but autistic people and neurodiverse people aren't characters, they're real identities with multiple layers to them. (Also other movies played my non disabled actors have been criticised, it maybe just wasn't as visible due to less social media etc). Disabled and autistic people want opportunities to be themselves on screen and have employment, etc
Thank you (and Salty as well) for sharing your thoughts.
Heard and appreciated.
Remember, she only goes with what something looks like.... as long as the actress looked like she was autistic is good enough for P, just like she spent thousands of dollars on a kitchen because of how it looked and not function
The main problem for me is the blatant hypocrisy of an industry that goes for all "woke points", yet stubbornly refuses to cast a disabled person or even hiring one as a consultant. They want to look inclusive while blocking the door to prevent anyone knowing the real deal to invade their space and they want the money without actually investing the most minuscule amount of effort (Lol, sound familiar?). It also reinforces preconceptions that ore often wrong or at least oversimplified.
The only people investing the most effort are in children's entertainment. And even those programs are rare.

Where does one go to see this film or the music trailer about it?

Cilla go make some microwave popcorn from the expensive microwave. It's the only thing you know how to make that taste good.
