I'm trying to think about the plot, but all I have in my head is "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington." If anyone can help me, I will be most thankful!

Go with it! Wasn't that Jimmy Stewart? Use the character he played in "Harvey" (Elwood Dowd?) - now there was an aspie, methinks. Send Elwood Dowd to Washington. Not sure if he should bring Harvey.

Read up on Gordon Brown, the new Prime Minister of England. His bio shows a man that definately has Aspie overtures.

yes, I hadn't thought about "Being There" being autistic or Aspie but now I think it is spot on!

Pardon me, but what do you mean by "Being There"? Is that a movie?
Oh, and Claradoon...Smith himself had Aspie tendancies. They way he tried to talk to Paine's dughter, for example.

P.S.: I just might remake "Smith".

Wasn't the Jimmy Stewart Mr. Smith a bit Aspie?

Okay! It'll be a remake of Mr. Smith Goes to Washington! I was thinking of setting it in the Now times...Because 1940s wouldn't make sense, and it would be more costly. BTW, should I keep the Title the same? Because if not, I'm always open to ideas!

It's an excellent Peter Sellers movie.
