What a little gem!

We sat down and watched it last night, not a dry eye in the house - except for yours truly obviously.... Mrs Chirps was bawling at the end. Kids loved it.
Some really funny bits and some poignant ones too.
If you are a big/little brother or parent and this does not move you, then you have a heart of stone!

    A story of a young Jewish boy who wants his Bar Mitzvah to be bigger and better than his big brother's was. Sadly events transpire against him, the biggest one being England's progress in the World Cup.
    His big day is booked for Sat 30th July 1966...........

    You'll love it.

    Cheers. Rings a bell now. I'd get it out on DVD but don't belong to a DVD shop/club.

    I was not that moved eitherbut the bit at the beggining before the credits was hilarious, especially when the kid with Polio (including leg Calipers (sp?)) got picked before him for football
