In 1976, 8-year-old Mary Daisy Dingle (voiced by Bethany Whitmore) was a little girl in Melbourne, Australia, who liked the cartoon "Noblet", sweetened condensed milk and chocolate. Mary's mother is an alcoholic, and her father, who works in a tea packing factory, only likes to make stuffed birds. Lonely Mary, who has no friends, wrote a letter to Max Jerry Horowitz (Philip Seymour Hoffman) in New York City on a whim one day asking where American children come from, Attached is a cherry chocolate bar. Max, 44, suffers from autism and obesity, and also happens to like watching Noblet cartoons and eating chocolate. The pen pal relationship between the two lasted from 1976 to 1994, during which they went through many ups and downs in their lives, until the adult Mary (voiced by Toni Collette) finally came to New York to visit Marx... The film involves a heavy burden Topics: On suicide, alcoholism, death, sexuality and mental illness. The story is full of dark and grotesque humour, a bit of British comedy.

8/10. I can't help but wonder what a lonely and weird childhood the director had to be able to shoot such an amazing and sad fairy tale, those gloomy and gloomy pictures, those ugly autistic characters, those simple and narrated plots. , exudes a rough and sincere texture because of many humorous and unique small details~~

loser piece. Is it just that people in reality have so much tolerance and sympathy compared to evaluating movies? Impossible

Max Jerry Horovitz: I have also invented some new words. "Confuzzled", which is being confused and puzzled at the same time, "snirt", which is a cross between snow and dirt, and "smushables", which are squashed groceries you find at the bottom of the bag. I have sent a letter to the Oxford Dictionary people asking them to include my words but I have not heard back.

Narrator: Max hoped Mary would write again. He'd always wanted a friend. A friend that wasn't invisible, a pet or rubber figurine.
