I was lucky enough to be invited to the screening of CinemAbility on 10/19/2013 at the Muvico at Pompano Beach. CinemAbility is a documentary of Disability on the Silver Screen from the the early silent films through the present day. Jenni Gold, Director created an amazing journey with viewer, with a star studded cast. Our local celebrity Danny Murphy had several parts helping to show the importance of using actors with disabilities in TV and in the Movies to help bring more awareness and realism. Jenni explained that few movie writers give much thought to the disabled community when writing their screen plays; there is a push to bring more awareness to writers toward inclusion.
