Paper Spiders

This movie deserves recognition for it's cast, crew and wonderfully told story. There are very few films out there that have such a powerful message and the ability to touch the viewer in such a way. It is a profound and thought provoking film. It highlights the difficulties that arise when faced with the unique challenges of caring for someone with an illness (mental or otherwise).

The cast and crew did a great job in bringing such a wonderfully written script to life on the screen. I would absolutely recommend this film.

This is a tremendous story of mental illness that will pull at your heartstrings and leave a lasting impression. IMO: this is one of the year's best dramas. The performances are simply incredible. I went in not knowing what to expect, only seeing that it received 100% on Rotten Tomatoes. Now I understand how deserved that is. Most movies today don't leave me captivated for the duration of the movie like this one. I'm not going to ruin the ending but I did especially appreciate how realistic it was, yet hopeful. A breathe of fresh air. I will be watching again.

'Paper Spiders' is as wonderfully-acted as it is cleverly handled. Lili Taylor and Stefania Owen are excellent in this tragic story about a girl trying to save her mentally ill mom at all costs. The dialogue is really funny at times, and also quite realistic It is relevant to show the problems that people face which aren't often discussed, and when they are in Hollywood films they are done in a more contrived way, where as Paper Spiders hits paranoia head on in a very realistic, emotional way. This is real life, and this movie proves to be a true success.

This movie makes us understand delusion disorder, the mental illness can screw people life totally, especially the ones surround them. It's nothing dramatic and kinda sad the choice of the daughter. Mental health is really important.

You are guaranteed to cry in this one, so keep tissues handy. This movie highlights and underlines the unbreakable bond between mothers and daughters... but it's not only for women (the men in my fam equally enjoyed it) and that's how you know you're watching something great. There aren't many movies like this one so it is very refreshing. If you're looking for a heartwarming, powerful story you've got to see this.
