Les aiguilles rouges (2005)
Found it hard to believe the story and I didn't relate to anyone.
My Movie Rating:
6 / 10 Au revoir les enfants (1987)
I was dumb struck when I first saw this film. I used the final phrase of the head friar Au revoir les enfants when I leave a group of people. Haunting and the voice over at the end was chilling.
My Movie Rating: 10 / 10 Baby Bump (2015)
You need your head well screwed on to follow what is going on in this film. Its about a strange relationship between a boy and his mother. At one stage he is giving urine samples for his classmates. Do they test for drugs in schools in Poland? He gives birth to an egg from which he comes out of when hatched! His way of having a separate identity from his mother?

My Movie Rating: 8 / 10 Barnens ö (1980)
My Movie Rating: 9 / 10 Brecha (2009)
A sad sad tale of misunderstanding between recently released prisoner and widow and his motherless son and the interfering grandmother. Nicely told and the misunderstandings are revealed at the end.
My Movie Rating: 9 / 10 Ciske de Rat (1984)
This is a very good film about a boy, basically abandoned by his parents, and his interaction with his prostitute mother. Things come to ahead and he is sent to prison and one's heart goes out to him when he has to strip totally to get his prison clothes. After prison he saves the life of a boy and he is now in everyone's good books. This ending spoiled the emotional dept of the film for me. Too Hollywoodlike.
My Movie Rating: 8 / 10 December Boys (2007)
My Movie Rating: 7 / 10 La Discesa di Aclà a Floristella (1992)
When I first saw this film I was horrified that such practises were as recent as the 1930s. I suppose that such practises are still alive and well, unfortunately, in the world. The power of the rich and the power of the Church in contrast with abject powerlessness of the ordinary people. Quality of the film I saw wasn't great.
My Movie Rating: 9 / 10 Dobrodruzství s nahým klukem (1964)
I haven't seen this with English subtitles but there is no need since the expressions on people's faces tell the story. It's a film that should be watched by everyone especially in these days when such a film would be regarded as child abuse. I wonder what the boy was thinking when in the tram with all those adults?
My Movie Rating: 10 / 10 Du er ikke alene (1978)
My Movie Rating: 10 / 10 Ellos Volvieron (2015)
My Movie Rating: 9 / 10 En tu ausencia (2008)
A troubled boy, a nosey postman, dishonest teenagers and much more in this tale set in Andalusia with a lonely boy ready to do anything for an adult male friendship which goes horribly wrong.
My Movie Rating: 9 / 10 La Gloire de mon père (1990)
a delightful tale of a boy and his brother growing up in France before the First World War and their time in Provence. A time when pleasures were simple before the rude awakening of the war.
My Movie Rating: 9 / 10 Der Grüne Heinrich (1993)
My Movie Rating: 6 / 10 Hadaka no shima (1960)
My Movie Rating: 8 / 10 Le Havre (2011)
My Movie Rating: 7 / 10 Hjartasteinn (2016)
What is it about Icelandic films? They are so depressing and this one about two boys one who finds himself attracted sexually to his best friend only to be rebuffed and his resultant depression. Found the film very absorbing but did wonder about the home life of people in Iceland!
My Movie Rating: 8 / 10 Idi i smotri (1985)
Surely a film to remind people that war is a terrible business and that the ordinary people suffer. A harrowing film and a must see for UK people as they are trying to cut themselves off from Europe. We need to talk and emphasise our common heritage rather than be different. Goverments and media promote war and we the people suffer.
My Movie Rating:
10 / 10 If.... (1968)
Enjoyed the film but was a bit confused at times. Felt that the main character, Mick, looked too old, as did some of the others, to be school boys.
My Movie Rating: 7 / 10
