Movie Reviews of Friendship's Field
Movie Review: 5 Stars for FAMILY FILM, and EDUCATIONAL MESSAGE
Summary: 5 Stars
This is not created using the big Hollywood names for actors and actresses but the story is so good, the experience taught to viewers so important, and the family and friend relationships so well presented it is a must have for every family. One for homeschooling also, since they have need of learning about relationships outside their own family.
This is a heartwarming story of the friendship that evolved between a Mexican boy, Oscar, from a migrant family, and a tom-boy girl, Ira, tom-boyishly short for Iris, who lives on the beet farm the migrants work on. It shares much about the bigoted conditions of the 1960s which for some have yet to get better. Through films like this, perhaps that day will arrive for more.
There is even a parent guide with family discussion questions on the back of the DVD box. Let Oscar and Ira teach values and human respect to children you know. Provide them this DVD tool to learn.
Summary of Friendship's Field
Ira and Oscar, two kids from different cultures, developed an enduring friendship which triumphed over tragedy and taught lasting lessons. An aged crayon drawing found in a trunk awakens memories from the unforgettable summer of 1965. Ira was 11 years old, enjoying her last year of freedom before working on her family?s beet farm. When her father hired migrant workers to help in the fields, Ira didn?t realize the experience would change her life forever. In spite of local hostility shown to the migrants, Ira befriended Oscar, a young Mexican boy. Their summer of carefree fun was tested by prejudice and taught Ira how to be a true friend and stand up for her beliefs.Similar DVD Movies
