Excellent Family Entertainment

I loved this movie! It's a great movie, sensitive and spell-binding. All of the actors deserve awards for their portrayals of the characters that build and relate the storyline. The movie is unforgettable, and it's star, Peter Lawford, is superb in his role. The main star is a child, and predictably, he steals the show. If you are fortunate enough to see this movie, better have some tissues handy - it's definitely on a par with Jackie Coogan and Wallace Beery in "The Champ." The kids will love it, too. Yet, for all it's charm and warm-hearted appeal, it does not seem to be available for general purchase. Will somebody please tell me where I can get a copy - I'd love to see it again!
