If you loved Robinson Crusoe, try December Boys
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by Rod Hardy, and they both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Robinson Crusoe, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What December Boys is
Here's a film that's really banking on the inherent drama of being an adolescent orphan. Four lads from a Catholic orphanage in the Australian outback are sent on a seaside vacation where they vie for adoption by the same couple. It's a coming-of-age tale that's not afraid to ask the question: what if being an orphan wasn't that fun?
