Linguistic and Communication Behaviors of People with Autism Spectrum in Chosen Feature Films

Summary/Abstract: Language and speech are essential in every human being’s life. People acquire linguistic competences from the early years that help them build grammatically correct phrases and linguistic skills thanks to which, they can adjust the message to its receiver and situation. All this helps build important for us relations. Unfortunately, people with disabilities, apart from physical and mental dysfunctions, are characterized by a different level of linguistic and communicative skills. In this article, I am going to present the language skills of fictional film heroes with autism spectrum disorders. I will also make an attempt to assess the accuracy of the correct presentation of language disorders among people with disabilities by film directors and heroes in relation to the professional literature devoted to the described autism spectrum.
