Trivia

The casting for Kim was not easy. After screen tests for over one hundred boys, either the look or the acting was not right. Just weeks before filming began, Lasse Nielsen's co-writer recommended Peter Bjerg, the twelve-year-old son of a fellow psychologist, and he was just perfect for the role. See more »

My absolute favorite movie.
28 June 2000 | by Qale-2 – See all my reviews

Being my absolute favorite movie, I could watch "You Are Not Alone" if it were set on repeat. Few movies, and most certainly none of them American, set out to thrash the rules of moviemaking. Bo and Kim are beautiful young lovers and the film taints their love with equally beautiful moments shared on screen. The other boys both support the main story of Bo and Kim as well as expand into their own stories which also include the headmaster of the school all of them attend.
