I watched this excellent movie called "Christmas On Division Street", it's about this 14-year old boy named "Trevor" who meets a vagrant in the library, they develop a close relationship because the vagrant reminds Trevor of his grandfather who died a few months ago. The movie deals with the challenges the homeless goes through in the streets and the responsibility each one of us have to help them. I rate this movie:
Hume Cronyn is amazing on this film and Fred Savage too. It's a very touching Christmas movie about how little we know about those who live in the streets and in some cases, entire families. The story line is original and the acting really good. It's a 1991 film so keep that in mind when you watch it.
