Lars and the Real Girl
Editorial reviewLars is a 27-year old misfit who lives alone in a garage and mostly keeps to himself. His mother died while giving birth to him, his father kept to himself, and now, relating with humans is fraught with danger. To overcome his challenges, Lars orders a plastic girlfriend from the Internet and pretends that she is real. This is a moving story about the goodness in human beings and the power of symbols, love and compassion as healing agents. And if you look closely, you'll find clues to the importance of being initiated into manhood, the sacred ritual our culture lost.
