If you want cheering up this is definitely not the movie for you. A dying mother, missing father, overbearing grandmother, weather that is either dull or never stops raining and bullying at school all combine to make poor Conor O'Malley's life just short of hell. Lewis MacDougall acts his socks off in this film showing all the painful emotions of a boy growing up and beset with these problems. If that isn't enough, a huge monster in the shape of a Yew tree with a very destructive bent blunders into his life. Words of wisdom fall like leaves from this monster while Conor has to face up to the terrible events going on around him. Great acting from Lewis, great photography too but a ray of sunshine provided by his father arriving from America penetrates the gloom of the story.
