A dream like stillness…
“The Snowman has been my favourite film since it first appeared on our TV screens on Boxing Day in 1982. I remember watching it for the first time as if it was yesterday.
Years later, in some ridiculous corporate ice-breaking session with 10 senior business leaders, I was asked to share my favourite film - the only film which came into my head was The Snowman and the only words able to come out of my mouth ‘The Snowman’.
My revelation was met with sniggers from those around me and I remember not understanding why my choice of favourite film was so unpalatable to them.
It was the truth. I love the film - and only last week I read in the brilliant book Nine Minds by Daniel Tammet of another autistic person who enjoyed watching The Snowman on repeat.”
