Anyone know of any decent thought provoking films aimed at kids? I'm fed up of some the crap being churned out on the screen at the moment.
A mate recommended 'The Boy in the Striped Pajamas' http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0914798/
which I watched with my 11yr old boy on the weekend and it was superb.
The Truman Show is up next this weekend…any more for any more?

"Kes" is a terrific film about a young lad from a working class background who finds an abandoned kestrel.
"Whistle Down The Wind" and "Tiger Bay" are also good for a watch. |  | | |

Any 1st/2nd/Vietnam war film. Some may not be suitable for an eleven year old yet though. |  |
| Ever since my son was... never conceived, because I've never had consensual sex without money involved... I've always kind of looked at you as... a thing, that I could live next to... in accordance with state laws. | | Poll: | How do you like your steak? |

If you like boy in the striped pyjamas (excellent film), try out Escape from Sobibor. |  |

If you can get the kid to cope with black and white there are loads.
But for thought provoking, I would start with '12 Angry Men' a piece of one set genius. The concept of the Jury might take some explaining in advance. | | | |
