Program – No Morals

Two movies that don't require kids around for you to watch them, but are suitable for children over the age of 8 or 9. Except for the overall message -- explicit in "Small Change" -- that children are vulnerable to the whims of adults, there are no Aesopian morals to these stories. Perfect for kids, enjoyable for everyone else.

When I first heard an audio clip from "Into the West" played during a radio movie review, I teared up. The movie is even better.

I saw "Small Change" (French) when it first came out. It stands up just as beautifully thirty-some years later.
