Truly Madly Deeply

[Buddy Bradley]

FWIW, I don't think the title had anything to do with the film - it was just a dual-reference to both the cliche about being in love and the outdated concept of 'madness' as it relates to people with LD.

I agree - the film just makes it a triple pun, but I think that's more of a happy coincidence than a direct reference. Although the film doesn't directly addreess the question of whether people with learning difficulties have as much right to a relationship as the rest of us, it makes its opinion on that very very clear - the title is just part of the overall challenge to lazy thinking about these things.

The contents make it clear what is intended by the title, which is why I think it's a bit odd to think about complaining without even bothering to watch it. Political correctness gone mad!
