    I proper enjoyed this film am 14 years old an i had a lump in my throat all the way through and even shred a tear now and then. when i'm older i want to work with abused children and this film shows parts of true life i loved it , i want to buy this film and watch it every secinf of the day , mayve if you could make a film of "The Little Prisoner" then you movies and your show would be the best ever because i watch it all teh anyway ,, but i have read that book so many times and would love to see it with my own eyes in stead of imagining it . thanks alot x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
