Some time ago, I watched this amazing video about rain man that points out all the autistic traits Tom Cruise as Charlie, the brother of Dustin Hoffman as Raymond shows. Yes, you understood it correctly, the autistic traits of Charlie, the younger brother.
Spoiler:
There are a lot of them.
So many, that it's a stereotypical presentation of autism with lower support needs. So rain man is actually a story about two autistic brothers.
