Feel free to come and share your own personal insights sometime; the Saturday Night Video and Discussions here in Austin, Texas are a lot of fun and fascinating. (They're free, too.) Here are the questions the group came up with, based on the personal growth themes in the movie:

MY FAMILY AND OTHER ANIMALS

  1. What has been my best response when people tried to squash my creativity?
  2. How have I stood up for myself when I've had enough?
  3. How do I deal with big disappointments and trauma and "losing my innocence"?
  4. How have I been blessed with someone who is whole-heartedly expressive and authentic?
  5. How can I learn to acknowledge and express my true emotions?
  6. How have I dealt with reality overriding my denial?
  7. What would Spiro do?
