Miss You Can Do It (2013)
Beauty comes in all forms
"Miss You Can Do It," is and incredibly inspiring film that makes you take the time to really think about the lives of those that are physically or mentally disabled. On a day to day basis when a majority of people walk by a person with a disability we stare, or feel pity for them, while ultimately writing them off. This film shows that these are people with real feelings, desires, and ambitions.
Here we follow Miss Abbey Curran who has Cerebral Palsey, and she had the determination to be her own person and be OK with who she is. She created the Miss You Can Do It pageant to help all these girls with disabilities feel the humanity they know they deserve, and to show that just because they are different, does not mean they are not beautiful.
One of the main elements I took from this film was the personal lives of all the girls we follow throughout the film, and how their families have learned to live with their disabilities and accept them. Each family has struggled and some openly admit it scared them to death at first; however, having a disabled child has opened their eyes to how special their children truly are and how they love them no matter what.
Miss You Can Do It truly helps one understand the lives of those we consider "different," and that just like all of us, they are people that feel just as deeply as we do.

This short story delves into the life of Brian Tolley, a child with Autism. Withdrawn from society and living his life with poor verbal communication skills.He discovers his passion; making art from twist ties.
Through this passion we see Brian's true creative genius, that most of us only dream of having. Only in his mind, can he see all the opportunities to create using, what to us, are normal household items. Brian is able to create almost anything he puts his mind to.
We see in "Mr. Twister," that just because someone may appear different, they still can have an incredibly powerful mind that is open to all the creative possibilities in the world.
