I just saw your film "Tarnation." I am so impressed by your bravery and your raw honesty and, despite everything, affection for all concerned. I'm the oldest of 5 of a mentally ill mother who alternated between being detached and being evil. She was never properly diagnosed, never properly treated primarily because she resisted all efforts. I think she was really afraid to find out and for others to find out how really crazy she was, so if anybody (including all of us) had a problem with her, it was entirely our problem. I could never do what you have done with our story and I could never treat it with the love that you managed to instill into such a nightmarish series of events. God bless you, Jonathan.
Your film is raw, and the feeling I got when I watched it, it's hard to pinpoint. Its almost like you were born to create. One of those films you watch and never forget, bc your one of those people, the kind that you meet and you always remember them. Thank you for letting people see your life, not everyone does that, especially in such a talented way.
what can i say other than absolutely awe inspiring. i saw tarnation for the first time last night. you have managed to survive the life you were faced with and succeed. i am doing my dissertation on the effects of parental mental illness on children and i'm sure tarnation will have a well-earned mention!
best wishes

Hi. I'm Milena, I'm 15 years old and I'm from Argentina. I just saw your film and it let so much thing to thinks about the life. I mean, your strong and all the things that you had to get throught and sometimes one sayd "how can I go on after this or that?". You're such a example. The way you love your mum... I mean, I know that she's your mum! But I don't knowe if someone else do the same thing that you did in that case or situation.
Mmmm... i don't know what I wanna say with all this, but, anyway: i liked your film, the images, the music. but it's sad to think that it's true.
kisses, jon.
