Review of Sleepers (1996) by Suzanne O — 16 Jul 2013
Very tough movie to watch that explores sexual abuse. Movie is greatly cast as it explores the lives of boys who are sentenced to a boys home after accidentally killing a hot dog vendor in street theft.
The movie in the second half shows the boys as adults and their mental anguish as they try to deal w the trauma as adults. It gets a little weird in their plot to get back at the people who abused them at the home.
Still nonetheless a riveting controversial tough watch.
