Made in the hopeful post-world War lI era that produced such classics of sociaI conscience as Gentlemen's Agreement, Pinky and Home of the Brave, this provocative film is a fabIe for its time - and ours. lt teIls the supernaturaI-tinged story of an orphan who finds a safe haven in smalI-town America. . . untiI the day his hair turns green. Then the townsfoIk turn against him, frightened by the change they cannot understand. A caII for toIerance, an inspiring statement that "different" doesn't mean "threatening," The Boy With Green Hair boasts a fine cast (Robert Ryan, Pat O'Brien, Dean Stockwell), a popular theme song ("Nature Boy") and the feature-fiIm debut of director Joseph Losey (The Servant, The Go-Between). |
