Behind the Waterfall

The movie isn't just about irish folk tales. The youngest boy has to move to a small town and learn to accept his fathers death. And who better to help him then Alex. She plays the real smart child. Who's she trying to kid? The two children spend their summer with an old Irish man named Mr. O'Conners played by radar himself. I hope nobody has any problems with the accent. It was well done but in the back of your head you knew it was fake. The two children will learn to look at the world around them with a new view. The young boy has a sister who is having trouble living in the new town. I mean a town with out a mall whatever. With funny little moments like ferry rings where you could get stuck dancing for seven years. Everything seems to be going smoothly until Mr. O'Conners has a heart attack. The young boy figures out a way to save to save him by finding an old flute Mr. O'Conners had had stolen from him. By the way the flute was for the fairy king...Kinky. I highly endorse this product or event. If you don't have anything to do for a while either pray or watch this movie but either way this is as close to heaven as you can get.

This is a marvelous film from Feature Films For Families :), the wholesome quality of the characters makes you feel refreshed the moment the movie begins. As Tommy, his sister, and the other characters discover God through learning about fairies, and other "Irish Blarney" you travel through their adventures with them. I definitely recommend watching this. :)

Ok so I was bored and I watched it all the way through.

This film is mild, inoffensive and lacklustre. The story is so sugary it rots your teeth on the opening titles. A tail of two 'traumatised' children learning about 'God' the fairy story way which frankly left me rather traumatised. It uses the Irish 'blarney' in such a stereotypical way one hopes no true Irish ever see it. Aimed at children who frankly would switch off after the first attempt at an 'OIRISH' accent. All in all why do they pump these out.

I thought it was a sugary, predictable movie, but so what??? Not everything has to be an experience to expand the mind. Thats what guilty pleasures are all about. I loved it because at the time we bought it from FFFF, we were stranded in northern Nevada, Battle Mountain, to be exact, for upwards of 8 years. I was so home sick, and when we put this movie on for our boy, I saw my hometown. Literally. Payson Utah is the location for the downtown shots, and I almost cried. So, in spite of the lack of excitement, and mediocre acting, I will keep it in my collection, to remind myself of home, even tho we have moved to Beautiful Colorado.............................................

This movie is one of my personal favorites. It leaves you filled with a desire to dream and imagine. I recommend this movie to children-and adults, especially if you're overwhelmed by reality. A charming movie full of family values. I watched it when I was little and I still do now as I'm growing up. The movie tells about seven-year-old boy named Tommy and his older sister, Becky who visit their Aunt and cousin, who believe everything can be explained scientifically. Tommy and his cousin, Alex meet an old shoemaker, Mr.Conners. With his help the children learn to believe and use their imaginations while looking for the "Lost Faden." The movie produces an emotion that is almost impossible to describe, you just have to believe there's something else there. Just like Mr.Conners taught Alex and Tommy, you have to believe what you can't always see.
