Melts even the most cynical heart...

Rating: Null/10 (21 October 2000)

Coming from a rough and ready industrial area, I was very cynical about the premise of BILLY ELLIOT. Ballet was for girls, I had always thought - how wrong I was. Jamie Bell's performance is mesmerising and he blows Haley Joel Osment's performance in The Sixth Sense right off the screen! This promising star is one for the future.The Final five minutes made my heart ache in emotion and tears flood from my eyes. A joy to behold!
