New documentary shows how disabled characters have fared over the decades

CinemAbility is a new documentary looking at how films and television shows
have portrayed disabilities through history. Combining interviews with actors
(including Geena Davis, Gary Sinise, Marlee Matlin, and William H. Macy) with
supporting film clips (from titles such as Freaks, Forrest Gump, Edward
Scissorhands, and Game of Thrones), director Jenni Gold shows some of the
ways that the media and popular culture have impacted society's attitudes
toward people with disabilities. The film recently screened in Los Angeles,
and is slated to debut at the Regal E-Walk 13 in New York City on September
20th, followed by screenings in Atlanta and Fort Lauderdale.
