The 101 Greatest Films About Childhood According to Filmicability - Page 2

"In determining this list, I had to juggle a few things. First, how did the idea of childhood (and often the transition into adulthood) most figure into the story? Sometimes, childhood (or, more often, the teen years) ventured too closely into maturity, & so I had to negate titles which are really films about newly minted adulthood. Sometimes I had to figure out whether a film was about a specific child performance vs. whether it had something to impart about childhood in general. I had to balance how some of these films had as much or more to say about adulthood as they did about being a kid. I wanted to balance out the number of female-oriented films with the male ones, and I had to think about those films that were more about the experience the child in question was feeling, rather than childhood itself. And, of course, I had to consider simply what were the best films of them all...so, with all this in mind, here are my choices" - filmicability.blogspot.com
