Abstract |
An utterly charming fable that poetically captures the joys and wonders of childhood. When a seven-year-old boy is tricked into believing he killed his older brother, he gathers his meager possessions and flees to New York's nether wonderland: Coney Island. Upon and beneath the crowded boardwalk, Joey experiences a day and night filled with adventures and mysteries, resulting in a film that is refreshingly spontaneous and thoroughly delightful. Hailed by critics as a groundbreaking cinematic feat, LITTLE FUGITIVE won a Silver Lion at the **Venice Film Festival**, and was nominated for an **Oscar** for Best Writing. |
