- For more than 40 years Emmy Award-winner Kyra Sedgwick has starred in films and on TV, including the series "The Closer," and has shared the world stage with her husband, fellow actor Kevin Bacon. Now, in the Off-Broadway comedy "All of Me," Sedgwick plays the mother of a young disabled woman who is romantically involved with a disabled man. Correspondent Mo Rocca talks with Sedgwick about the play she calls a "family dysfunction story," and with actors Madison Ferris and Danny J. Gomez, who say they like the play for not indulging in what's been called "inspiration porn."

We’re all just temporarily able bodied.
I’m a disabled adult. I was really glad to see this bit, especially bc CBS Sunday has a very long history of featuring “inspiration p--“ as defined in this bit. However, when the one actress bragged about not living with her mom (good for her, but the framing of living with one’s parents as a negative thing was not necessary) and Kyra Sedgwick said that the measure of success as a parent is your child moving out. Many disabled people can not live independently. And many people live with their parents for other reasons. In some cultures, multi-generational households are the norm. There is no need to add to the stigma of multi-generational households in American society. Our strange fixation on individualism is getting harmful.
I agree with you. I am a disabled adult and never left my parents. Everyone is not the same. In my opinion living your best is different for everyone disabled or not. I would still like to see the play.
I hear you Kyra, some of the best & most productive things happened to me after I turned 50!
I enjoyed this story/interview immensely! Thanks CBS, Mo, and Kyra😊
I hope the theater is accessible.

I love Kyra's positive outlook in life and she has such a strength that exudes such class and determination. I appreciate her positive message of going after any challenge in life no matter what people around us tell us.
She is an amazing talent! Go Kyra!

A 35 year Hollywood marriage is like a hundred year marriage in the real world.
Oh my God. I've waited all my life for representation like this! I'm crying... Thank you!
I love this . I was diagnosed with Asperger's in my mid 50s and have been discovering who I truly am since then and loving it.

"Doesn't get enough light shone on it"
WHAT!!! 😳
The world is obsessed with disabilities. Kids even make up their own disabilities for TikTok.
Rich live in a bubble.
Accusing disabled people of lying IS ableism.
Them lying is simply a fact.
I'm so disabled I literally can't talk without an app.
I don't lie about it and randomly start twitching about and pretending.
And I present , ableism in a nutshell!
