Thanks. I've seen it so I know that, but do they actually use the word Aspergers in the film?


They do, in fact Max explains to Mary that he doesn't wish to be cured of his Aspergers and he is proud that he's an "Aspie". :)

In hindsight it's kinda weird to think that back then Aspie was a term for people like us to feel a sense of acceptance and pride, but now it's politically incorrect to use that word because the guy who discovered "Aspergers" was a Nazi. :|

Thanks for clarifying about the term. I thought they used it but couldn't remember.
