Movie #3086 ........................."Good Night, Mr. Tom" (netflix dvd)

 Movie #3086 "Good Night, Mr. Tom" (netflix dvd)  I am so glad netflix had this because I couldn't find it anywhere else.............it was on masterpiece theatre , and it was about an abused boy who was sent away to a European town during the war because his mother couldn't take of him adequately, and Mr. Tom, a rather standoffish kind of elderly man begrudgingly, at first, takes him in .....and then grows to love him.  When the mother send for the child to come back, the boy and Mr. Tom must comply, but Mr. Tom ends up fighting for him.  It was a wonderful story, and like I said I am glad I got the opportunity to see it.  I'd give it a 5 and highly recommend it.  But I'm not sure how you could see it.

"GOOD NIGHT, MR. TOM"   1998     1 hour and 41 mins      

A shy and quiet WWII evacuee is housed by a disgruntled old man, and they soon develop a close bond.
