Review of David and Lisa

Oprah Winfrey has done it again as she produces a compelling new version of the 1968 classic. Two mentally ill teenagers fall in love and conquer their illnesses with the help of the school's director, played by Sidney Poitier. I found Lukas Haas and Brittany Murphy excellent in their respective roles as David and Lisa. This film reaches out people of all ages at many different levels. It is fundamentaly a teenage romance with a unique twist. I would recommend "David and Lisa" to anyone and everyone!
