I saw this film in the cinema when I was 8 years old. I am now 80. It made a deep impression on that little lad and he has never forgotten it, although he must have seen hundreds of films in the intervening years. At that age I could not form any judgement on the quality of the film making or the acting, but that doesn't matter at all. It was clearly of the first rank because that little film has stayed with me for over 70 years, and I only saw it once. If there were viewing lists for children as there are reading lists, Never Take No For An Answer would forever be at the top of mine.
I commend it to everyone.
Such a simple storey, yet such a powerful message.
