Marilyn’s Eyes
Mentally challenged individuals receiving.outpatient group therapy for their disorders ranging from anger management, compulsive lying, nervous tics, paranoia, Tourette’s Syndrome to OCD try to cope with the real world “normal” people. Clara & Diego’s fictitious eclectic restaurant Monroe is a marketing sensation so the patients must learn to work together to open for real. This is an Italian project dubbed in English. This is a sweet quirky rom/com that points out that these individuals with some serious mental health issues are people too even though society rather they stay invisible. Yes, this film isn’t realistic & is predictable but it’s still feel good entertainment. Deep down, these people want to do better if given a chance even though they may screw up now & then..
Alien gives it 2½ “recipe for healing” stars out of 4.
