Boys don't cry

I first saw "The Cure" when I was really young; I remember my mother used to watch this film with me, mainly because I was a kid with a few friends. Erik is a boy that decides becoming friends with Dexter, a younger kid infected with AIDS and full of life restrictions. Their friendship is beautiful to be seen; despite the implausible possibility of this happening, it's great to see their trip to "New Orleans" in order to found the cure. They do everything in their power to find a cure for Dexter, but, unfortunately, they never discover where the heck it is at-- actually, 20 years have passed and, as of now, people are STILL looking for the cure. The acting varies from average to great, and the actor that portrays Dexter is very able to bring sympathy for the spectator; I mean, it's not that people with bad diseases have to be 100% pristine to be respected, but it surely brings life to the story as a whole. Maybe it's a cheap trick they make for us, but it works! All in all, "The Cure" is a wonderful movie that brings some nice reflections to us, and I'm glad I found it online. Very recommended!

score 8/10
