But it's so beautiful, the way you try

Mary Holland as Jane Caldwell in “Happiest Season” (2020)

Honestly, there are a lot of reasons to cry in this movie, but as an autistic woman, this scene hit me like a goddamn freight train. I cried basically the entire time I made this gifset because it felt so raw and relatable.

Seeing clearly autistic coded characters have their moment and making them more than just comedic relief doesn’t happen often enough, and Mary Holland did such an amazing job in the writing and acting of this scene. I am so grateful for this movie ❤️

I redid this older comic I made for my storytelling class based on this post. Have some cute wlw love in your day.
