An Angel for May (2002 TV Movie)
8/10
How original. Somehow reminds me of a book.....

It's a nice enough story, and filmed in just the right touch of romance. Casting is also just right, and the location is true to the story setting. As an adult I like viewing it even if it is meant for children. There are some hidden messages children would never catch, which make it worthwhile to view. But one thing came to mind as soon as the plot became clear. The writer(s) almost MUST have read "Johnny and the bomb" (1996) by Terry Pratchett. There simply are too many parallels for coincidence. Of course I can't go into the details much without disclosing the plot of the story. But some of the characters and the major story line are exactly the same. Read the book and decide for yourself. A great book by the way, even be it for the youth.
