My Angel, My Hero: Dancing with PD (a new film)
 
Hello,

I just happened to be leaving a sorely needed new Tweet on Twitter when I ran across this gem from someone I follow. It looks so much more promising than the much ado about nothing "Love and Other Drugs"

It centers on two men, one a former Wall Street guy who gets fired, and a young man who dances the streets of Manhattan and who also happens to have PD- according to review, about how they unwittingly inspire one another.

NOTE: On Facebook group page, the director is asking for volunteers to research and to spread awareness; I plan to inbox him for more info and will shamelessly plug Neurotalk and our book.


Don't know the release date, and there is not much publicity but here are some links....

This is a review from a PD advocate's blog:

lol, Lindy. Though at 24 min it has a lot to cover...looks interesting nonetheless as it breaks stereotype by casting a very young African-American man with PD.

Dopa Doc is great and even better he found me on Twitter! You know you want to join...:p Seriously, the PCC needs a presence out there....:)
