We take a different film per episode and explore its relation to autism. Sometimes this is obvious - perhaps there is an autistic character, or a theme of neurodiversity. Sometimes this is less obvious - it may be that one of our contributors has seen autism expressed in the movement of the camera or the use of sound. Join us for explorations through a neurodivergent cinematic spectrum!

We have arrived at our final episode as the 'Autism Through Cinema' podcast.
This is also our 50th episode, so all six of the regular hosts have gathered to look back on the work we have done over the past few years. Each host picks a favourite episode and offers their thoughts, before we join back together to reflect on the medium of podcasting as an academic pursuit.
Here are the direct links to the episodes discussed by each host:
Georgia: Punch-Drunk Love
Ethan: Cat People
Janet: Orlando
Alex: Asylum
Lillian: Amelie
David: Cars
We are hopeful that in some regard some of us may well be able to return to podcasting about the ongoing connections between autism and film, but for now we will say goodbye and thank you so very much for listening.
And huge special thank you also to all who have been involved in the making of this podcast, including our former host John-James Laidlow, all our wonderful special guests, and our editors Benjamin Leverett-Jaques and 344 Audio.
And final thanks to you, our listeners, for your downloads, streams, and support over the past few years.
Here's to a bright autistic cinematic future!
