| Genre: | Drama | Year: | 1999 | Rating: | R |
| Actors: | Chris Marquette, Polly Draper, Carol Kane |
| Topics: | Tourette's |
| Story of a boy with Tourette's Syndrome who becomes an underage jazz pianist. He pairs up with |
| an accomplished sax player who, ironically, also has Tourette's and has developed strategies for |
| covering up the symptoms. Interesting contradictions in how each of them views the disorder and |
| the associated stigma. Think about parallels between Tourette's and Obsessive-Compulsive |
| Disorder. [Suggested by Rebecca Vauter Stredny, Virginia Consortium Program in Clinical |
| Psychology] |
