Capturing the Rose-Tinted Lenses of Childhood.

Rating: 9/10 (19 November 2012)

This is a film that illustrates the coming-of-age of two children with real charm.
The script is both accurate to life and thoughtful: it is possible to see the innocent reasoning between these two characters, who are well developed and yet completely unique. Some lines were equipped to make me squirm in my seat with the delight of their naive wisdom. The actors each encompass the quirks of their character, while making them just believable. Adding to this, the editing is to the second, creating a sense of wit throughout the film, that creates youthful entertainment. This, alongside the beauty of the scenery and camera shots, provided the strange sense that I was within the fairytale these two children had created for themselves.
A definite film to see if you are in the mood for a lighthearted film that left me with the sense I had just grown up with these two young and insightful characters, that managed to illuminate some truths an adult may overlook. I finished with the inescapable feeling that I had experienced a summer as filled with adventure as theirs was.
