When they are driving back from the hospital and he says he should have tried harder and the mother realizes what he said it just get me. The way she is acting is just so convincing. What a beautiful movie.
i watched this movie back in 1995 when i was 12,now im turning 30 but this movie really reminds me of my childhood life..but its sad cos brad renfro died i heroin overdose...
If I could direct I would kill to make a film like this. There is nothing more special than the way a 90's movie looks/feels. I cannot explain it My all time favorite films (Not all 90's) Stand By Me, The Sandlot, Simon Birch, and this. I love these real deal "What its like to be a kid" kind of thing. Not some bs Disney nonsense, at least not what they have now.
I have searched for this movie since i was in college and never had a copy of it. Thank you for posting this on youtube! I have watched this several times and now, same result. A very touching movie that it moves me and makes me cry over and over again. A movie about what a genuine friendship and unconditional love a mother can give. Still my tears are falling.. Thank you for this movie!
its so beautiful that he had Erijk in his life...gawd i loved this movie...never heard of it but soooo glad i stumbled across it...thnx for posting...))
Life is given once, there were people who's given second chance of being alive, it shouldn't be waste for nothing, cause many people wants also but they dont got the chance, nowadays, u will realize when you're in such situation of crying and tears will fall in your own eyes... saying " i shouldn't have waste my life and time for taking those faults and mistakes in life, i shouldn't have done those things, know that everything has its purpose, everybody has its purpose in life"
Everyone should own a shopping cart. That looks like a blast! I watched this movie with a friend of mine and at the end she was sobbing uncontrollably. I thought I was gonna hafta sedate her.(I cried too.)
This was my favorite film as a child besides Home Alone and The Sandlot.. But this one is a sad one.. :-(

@GoonOnFire Yeah for sure!
they were more realistic they spoke to your true emotions on how we felt as a kid.
Now all these movies are specifically made to fashion and form the kids into mindless drones..its all a big commercial now
