I haven't watched this, I tried watching The King's Speech and had to turn it off because it made me so uncomfortable. Maybe I'll give this movie a try!...

All stuttering portrayals seem off to me, but that's probably because they don't stutter like how I stutter: Blocking, stuttering, occasional word replacements, covering my mouth, and unnatural body a...

I completely agree with all of that. I’m hoping they don’t try to put down the fact that Leo’s character stutters a whole lot but i’m nervous it will, making the audience laugh at him. Might be someth...

I wont lie, that was actually one of the better portrayals of a stutter that I’ve seen in a film, at least based on that clip. Although now that I know that the character apparently has a stutter, I’m...

He's a culmination of a few people. Leo also puts a bit of himself into the role. Being a bit awkward in real life conversation, even stuttering. But when it comes to delivering his lines he aces it....

I believe he plays a fictional character. But from what I’ve seen and heard , Leo plays a washed up actor that is dealing with his demons like stuttering. I assume it just adds to his character person...

There is a female character in Breath of the Wild with a perceivable stutter. Beyond that, there is a moment of dialogue that strongly suggests that she has an actual speech disorder instead of simply...

I used to feel the same when 'A Fish Called Wanda' was released. At the time I felt very awkward watching it especially when Michael Palin's character Ken was mimicked by 'Otto'. I since learned Mich...

I like the show a lot. I was/still am a huge fan of Futurama. BUT, the stuttering Morty does is still discriminatory. He does it when he's not confident or ashamed/nervous. There are episodes where Mo...
