Movie Reviews of Return to InnocenceMovie Review: when there is no innocence to return to Summary: 5 Stars
It concerns complexities. And it does so with stark honesty and delves into an issue that seems so simple on the outside looking in. The reason of betrayal was the boy's been walked away from after begging not to have another back turned, another door closed, and the terrible abuse of silence and alone.
Integrity is caught in a web and a web says this must always be looked at as in child molestation, which taints even the kindness of a word, brilliantly dissected by the lawyer uncomfortable as he may be with it.
The ending, the resolution, that all important character witness, the warmth of it, the showing there have been no strings to cut, only a deepest thank you for seeing a former street boy as a person, and Christmas, and come back, putting his own reputation on the line for a friend.
Though I doubt anyone can get a Phd. in writing the topic is not always as it seems, or be such an important part of New Horizons, it says much of how lonely this world, especially for children, and a kind man with an overflowing heart, can maintain dignity and every day of his life, give a place of safety to children with such dark, painful backgrounds.
A somber, well-thought out film, it never loses its footing. And reminds that syndromes are sometimes not that at all---just a need to have a human being see you, really see you, and to lash out at, then to help--we are such needy persons and sometimes just sometimes a film comes along and says look this way over here--and consider.
