Beautifully constructed family film rests on the outstanding performance of Byers as Ashmol and on Rice's sensitive story, which recognises the truth of Pobby and Dingan's existence for the little girl. Yes, the film deploys classic techniques to pull at the heart-strings of its audience, and truck-sized holes in the plot's credibility can be spotted a mile off, but this is wonderful use of cinema. Menzies essentially reprises his character from "Three Dollars", and the supporting cast is generally very strong. But the child actors are extremely talented: expect to hear more about them! Should do well at the box-office.
