Watch Mr. Russell explain the walk-on roll in his next movie on the Katie Couric Show.  
David, why did you want to make Matthew Quick’s novel into a movie?
David O. Russell: My son [Matthew, who is 18]. He went through a lot of these challenges you see in the film, and he still does. And I know a lot of the parents at his school, the Devereux Glenholme School in Connecticut [for children and young adults with special needs]. Pat is like a grown-up version of my son, and he’s frank and colorful and soulful and trying to do his best. It was personal to me, and to Mr. DeNiro as well, because we have both related to this as parents. We’ve been sharing stories for years about our kids and their challenges.

"Glenholme has given my son a new lease on life. There are no words to express my gratitude for the young man you have molded... THANK YOU!"
(More Parent Quotes)
Former Glenholme Students Are Finding Success. Here's what a Glenholme mom had to say about her son's recent achievements...

"Our son just graduated from a regular boarding school that is actually awarded the top in the state. He is going to Hofstra in September, where he was accepted into their PALS program which provides additional support. And this summer he is working for ID TECH camp teaching robotics to kids- they are giving him a trial because they usually don't take college freshman but he has a lot of teaching experience. So he has accomplished a lot and we are very grateful!

Don't know where we all would be if we hadn't found Glenholme! Thank you!"
