回复 :Charles Burnett, one of America's most highly regarded independent filmmakers, wrote and directed this domestic drama about a black middle-class family living in South central Los Angeles. However, there are no gangs, no guns, no drugs but instead a lyrical story that draws on folklore and the supernatural.family tensions are already simmering when Harry (Danny Glover) arrives to visit his old friends. He exudes an easy charm, knows secret past and present and is soon installed in the heart of the family. However, as his stay lengthens, so does he begin to cast an even more malevolent spell, provoking turmoil, setting son against son, reviving past hatreds, and inflicting a mysterious illness.Glover delivers a career-topping performance as the garrulous family friend, full of hidden menace, effortlessly evoking nostalgia and horror in the same breath.As ever, Burnett provides a wonderful music track featuring gospel, blues and jazz and a cameo from the legendary Jimmy Weatherspoon.'A slow-burning, soul-insinuating, 12-bar blues of a movie.' Tom Charity, Time Out'Danny Glover is marvellous, and terrifying, as a charismatic old-timer.' The Times(from the description on the back cover of the DVD)
回复 :相当出色的青少年寓言片，观赏性颇高。故事主角是一名小女孩，她正因为父亲不耐癌症折磨而自杀，感到闷闷不乐。此时，她发现邻居的大男孩相当神秘而孤僻，经常一个人呆在屋顶上。更令人惊异的是，大男孩说他会飞，女孩本来并不相信，但是当男孩牵着她的手在天空飞翔时，她不得不相信自己的眼睛。“天下间没有不可能的事，只要你有信心"。以此为主题的电影拍过很多，本片导演尼克．卡斯尔从写实片入手、以幻想片结束的手法是比较特别的。两名童星露西．狄更斯和杰．安德伍德都演得出色，成功地流露出一种亲切温馨的感觉。
