    a must see
    While at work some of us were discussing movies and actors when someone mentioned C Thomas Howell they brought up the hitcher, the outsiders, ETC...ETC.. and i said how about the one where he....and nobody knew what this film was. When i first seen this movie it was in 91 . i was getting ready to go asleep late on a Sunday night the movie was just starting when i turned the bedroom TV on .it only took a few minutes of watching and i was awake for the duration .what a well acted film with a strong powerful message . i wish this film got more attention .alot of people missed a good one and i think they would really appreciate the awesome performance here. a must see in my opinion.
