🎬 ABOUT A BOY (DVD) (WS) [Region 1]: A Heartwarming Tale of Friendship and Growth Review

Santa written by his father a long time ago. His father was an alcoholic and probably hit him when he was a boy. He's out of relationship with his father or he's dead. The man never had to work, so he succumbed to the temptation to be self-centered, narcissistic, and exploiting women and possibly children. He believes that nobody needs.

The film focuses on Marcus and Will trying to help each other because they both need a lot of work.
