Little owen out on that bridge broke my heart That scene of him running home after the fated baseball hit Tabby and crying out "I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" puts me in tears every time I see it. |

The accident is more heart wrenching than I expected. Poor Simon.
Moon, it brought tears to my eyes too.

Here's another scene I love--when John drops off the package for Simon and it cuts from Mrs. Birch to Simon up in his room. We see him gazing upwards towards God. He hears the scream then smiles, because he knows exactly what it means.  |

This movie manages to be both funny and a tearjerker at the same time. I love it when John is calling Simon in the graveyard and Simon thinks it's God talking to him. |

Joe is so obvious that I'm surprised Ben did not realize what they were doing. "I'm a swimmer just like you." lol I guess that beats pork chops.

Went from "Papa's got a brand new bag" to "Nowhere to hide, nowhere to run..." Poor Joe really wants to know who his father is.

The music is so clever and brings back memories. Joe and Simon need to become secret agents. lol For a first time director, Mark Steven Johnson (who also wrote the screenplay) sure did a great job with the music, didn't he? |
