I am Sam

The story of a men who has a mental retardation, and becomes a father of a baby girl.  That is how the story started in the movie I am Sam.  Sam faces so many struggles to keep his daughter with him because  of his disability.  In the movie there are many messages to the audience. One message if clearly that love powers anything, that we may think that a person with a disability is miserable when  a so call “normal person” is more miserable than them. The biggest messages was about Sam, the movie is trying to make a point about people with certained disabilities that they are also humans who have a heart and are capable of loving. They are not treated equally and giving an opportunity with society. They are being isolate from society because we feel they can’t think like us. They are mental retarded and can’t follow certain instructions. The movie I am Sam proved us wrong that they are just as capable of doing anything in life-like anyone else. That they can also raise a family I know it is just a movie, but it is also a calling to all of us that they are being forgotten. They also have dreams and goals in life.  We may all view it differently and may have different opinions on regards to it. In some way this movie was to made to gain certain profit and some power. They definitly want the audience to be aware that mental ill people are not just someone with a disability, but people who would like to be treated as one.
