Acting makes this the best drama ever

This is the only film that I have ever seen that has made me think of the characters, not the actors who played them, or forget about the numerous flaws that could've sunk it. In his first lead role, 11 year old Joseph Mazzello is mesmerizing, his performance as a dying AIDS victim is the best I have ever seen from anyone. Ever. His chemistry with Brad Renfro is what makes this film rise above everything else. Annabella Sciorra plays Mazzello's mom with such ability that makes me wonder why she isn't getting the roles Julia Roberts or Meg Ryan are getting.

(GOOD THINGS) 1.) Joseph Mazzello's performance      2.)'Trillion light years away' scene    3.) 'Bus Arriving' Scene    4.) Filming Locations 5.) Chemistry between Mazzello and Renfro      6.) Annabella Sciorra's performance      7.) The Bad Guys      8.) The script

(BAD THINGS)          1.) Diana Scarwid's performance      2.) Where the hell did that raft come from?

Total:   9.5/10
