Movie #899 "The Inevitable Defeat of Mister and Pete" was nominated for a spirit award this year, and it was very deserving. I have seen a few movies about homeless kids left to fend for themselves, but not with as much impact as this one has. I think what I liked most was the relationship between Mister and Pete ------it is true, when facing conflict and tragedy, that families can be made, and these two boys go through so much, how could they not make a family with each other. It is a very touching, tough movie to watch, and I only recommend it for people who think the story sounds interesting to them and who don't expect movies to be just about escaping their own lives.
