I wont lie, that was actually one of the better portrayals of a stutter that I’ve seen in a film, at least based on that clip. Although now that I know that the character apparently has a stutter, I’m almost worried it’s gonna affect my enjoyment of the film, like it’ll make me too anxious whenever the character stutters. And if I’m seeing it in theaters and people start laughing when he stutters (whether the film was going for laughs or not), that would probably ruin the entire experience for me.
