The Boy Who Could Fly (1986)

Well meaning and generally good. I think the movie would have more power by leaving out the fantasy element.

My Movie Rating:

7 / 10

The Boys Are Back (2009)

7 / 10

The Boys of St. Vincent (1992)

As a film story it is riveting. But. . .

The film invites everyone to suspect that boys left in the care of male clergy will be beaten and sexually abused, and never loved.

A fictional account based on true events. The disclaimer opens the door to bias and sensationalism. Where does the fiction end and the truth begin?

My Movie Rating:

The Cement Garden (1993)

Charlie St. Cloud (2010)

An extremely touching premise, that of a unique relationship between older and younger brother, was almost totally ruined by the film's heart-throb emphasis on the older brother and his girlfriend. But that's just me in the new-age Disney era.

Unfortunately, the book has the same problem, although book and movie have some beautiful moments.

My Movie Rating:

7 / 10

A Child Is Waiting (1963)

pretty good. Bruce Ritchie is a heart-stealer.

Cassavetes directed, but thank heaven someone kicked him out of the editing room.

A Christmas Carol (1999)

A very good screen treatment, well acted. Just about every male actor under age 15 is a total charmer.

My Movie Rating:

7 / 10

A Circle of Children (1977)

Its been many years but I still remember how adorable Matt Laborteaux looked and acted in a TV film I haven't since seen a trace of.

The Cold Lands (2013)

El Color de las nubes (1997)

Would have been much better if there were not so much back-story given by narration.

My Movie Rating:

7 / 10

A Cool, Dry Place (1998)

Bobby Moat is cute and charming as all get out and his performance makes this a pretty decent movie for me. This movie made me notice a practice that has become very popular and often annoying in US films, that of playing some folk-songy, ballady plaint over non-dialog scenes. Here,that type of thing really annoyed me by obscuring the sounds of the little boy's laughter in a 'playing outdoors' scene.

7 / 10
