Review of The Black Balloon (2008) by Daniel K — 04 Apr 2010
A great and touching film that follows a family with an autistic child, and the struggle that his older brother Thomas goes through trying to help him. There are many outstanding acting performances from both Rhys Wakefield and Luke Ford, plus Toni Collette is very convincing as the boys mother Maggie.
Some scenes are very confronting and also memorable, and are brilliantly acted and well-written. Overall a great Australian film I would definitley reccomend, and one that hits close to home also.
