Out of My Mind
Directed by Amber Sealey
Melody Brooks, a sixth grader with cerebral palsy, has a quick wit and a sharp mind, but because she is non-verbal and uses a wheelchair, she is not given the same opportunities as her classmates. When a young educator notices her student's untapped potential and Melody starts to participate in mainstream education, Melody shows that what she has to say is more important than how she says it.

neutral · AI labelView post →Over at @variety.bsky.social , I reviewed #OutOfMyMind a heartrending coming-of-age Disney Original about a tween with cerebral palsy. It’s not perfect, but it’s a great vehicle for Phoebe-Rae Taylor, who is an incredibly talented actress in her 1st film. variety.com/2024/film/re...
neutral · AI labelView post →Wow 🥹 #OutOfMyMind on #Disney+ is a beautiful story about inclusion that also models inclusion behind the scenes as well. It’s funny, emotional, and empowering… a true gem that deserves all the accolades.
positive · AI labelView post →I really liked the movie Out of My Mind (Disney+) 😊 I teared up so many times, especially after Melody spoke to her Dad for the first time when she good her communication device, and i loved that they casted an actress with Cerebral Palsy.
positive · AI labelView post →The movie Out of My Mind is a great movie we recently watched. It really helps to understand what someone with cerebral palsy goes through, and what they need to feel normal. Specifically, the need to communicate.
positive · AI labelView post →Watching “Out of My Mind” with the fam. There was a quick nod to Robert Jordan in the movie! Squeeee.
neutral · AI labelView post →Blair Witch. Opening night. Little art house in middle-of-nowhere Ohio, surrounded by forest. No buzz or press. Just the stories they'd brilliantly "planted" as real reports. No film poster. No marquee. Just 200 of the Witch's stick figures hanging in the lobby. I was scared OUT OF MY MIND.

With John Taylor gone, Warren Cuccurullo handled guitar and bass, while Talvin Singh’s tabla and other world touches give it a unique, almost exotic feel.
neutral · AI labelView post →Out Of My Mind is the best Disney+ Original film in a very long time. Phoebe-Rae Taylor gives such a beautiful and powerful performance, very touching film about a sixth grader with cerebral palsy. The film is funny, touching and just overall beautifully put together Well done.
positive · AI labelView post →#AprilFilmChallenge A hidden gem Out of My Mind (2024) Perhaps the best film about disabilities since Wonder. It does a great job demonstrating that non-verbal doesn't mean dumb (and in fact many non verbal people are incredibly smart) Newcomer Phoebe-Rae Taylor (who has CP) shines in the lead

neutral · AI labelView post →I watched #OutofMyMind. It's great that an AAC character finally has their own uplifting Disney movie. In my novel, the AAC device isn't as uplifting but it does employ a larger vocabulary of swear words and insults. So, you know, different kinds of progress. www.youtube.com/watch?v=AvVx...
