This movie was so good! Based on a true story of a tragedy. The movie based in the 70s was so real and raw! It was good old fashioned entertainment that tugs at your heart! I found myself wanting to save this young man! Being a true story, I think there are many children in need of rescue and nurturing love! A must see. The story also highlights the importance of teachers and how important they are in lives of children and teens! Had it not been for the heart of one teacher, this troubled teen would not have made it. It's a story of loss, abandonment, and redemption... everyone in the theatre was shedding tears. We need more movies like this that offer hope and show the goodness in people who are willing to open their hearts and in this case their home.
