Stolen Summer

 

Mike Weinberg, Adi Stein, Aidan Quinn, Kevin Pollak, Bonnie Hunt
Miramax Films; Directed by Peter Jones
Rated PG; 91 minutes; 2002

  
This is the film from Project Greenlight which was a contest sponsored by Ben Affleck and Matt Damon through Miramax to give the winner a $1 million budget to film their movie. The film itself centers on a Catholic boy who wants to help a dying Jewish friend get into heaven. They construct a list of 10 things which they feel will guarantee a spot in the afterlife, a “Decathlon of Heaven” so to speak. Kevin Pollack plays the Jewish boys father and Aidan Quinn plays the Catholic boys father, both of whom must confront the difficult relationship of their sons.

 

 “Two thumbs up! A delightful surprise! It’s charming, moving and funny.”
 - Roger Ebert
