This film got me!!
Think about it. This little guy is not even a teenager and he is one of the best actors out there. He only had about 4 lines in the entire film but he expressed more emotion than most actors express in 2 hours.
The storytelling was amazing. It told so much about this kid's life in less than15 MINUTES. He took care of himself. He brushed his teeth, fixed his meals, attended school every day, did his homework, got good grades, cut his hair, even took ice-cold showers. The only thing he didn't do was wash dishes, darn.
The ending really rocked me. It made me cry to know that this was based on a true story. I have had everyone in my household watch it and have told my friends about it.
We need more excellent films like this. What a GEM. On a scale of 1-10, this one deserves a 15!! It should have won many awards!!
