6 / 10 One of the best films ever!
My Movie Rating:
10 / 10 A moving film of the relationship between grandad and grandson. A sprinkling of the supernatural does nothing to detract from this pleasant and often funny film. A fine performance from Joseph Cross of course.
What no mention of Michael Craig Bigwood who played the mysterious little boy/angel? I think he was the son of James Bigwood, the co-producer.
My Movie Rating: 7 / 10 This movie ranks in my all time favorites! A superbly acted film with better than 90% screen time for JC! I always thought thab he was one of the best boyactors EVER! this movie is a must see for all Joseph Cross fan!
