    This is just a dear, sweet, engaging film. The young boy, while desperately unhappy with his situation in the present, manages to "fall through a hole in time", into 1940. While there, he is able to meet people he's only heard of or met as elderly, addled folks, in his life. And, as boys will do, he forms attachments and grows to love and care about them, so when he realizes that he can actually cause changes during his visits, changes for the better, well.... Between trying to "change the world", and save it, young Tom is a busy fella. It's a great film for all the family, a real "feel good" type of movie. During the climax of the film, you find yourself really hoping for Tom to suceed and manage to find what he seeks, in whatever time he's in. I don't want to give too much of the movie away, but it's a "warm fuzzy" of a movie, a sweet import from "across the pond". Hope you enjoy it as much as we did....
