    The Boy in the striped Pyjamas

    My 16 year old daughter encouraged me to watch this film.

    Set during World War II, a story seen through the innocent eyes of Bruno, the eight-year-old son of the commandant at a concentration camp, whose forbidden friendship with a Jewish boy on the other side of the camp fence has startling and unexpected consequences.

    Excellent film. if you havn't watched it I also encourage you to do so, as with all kids aged 8yrs and upwards.

    The casting was supurb. 10/10 from me.

    Congratulations, Ross, on raising a highly empathetic 16 year old. Not an easy task, from what I hear. Keep up the good parenting work!
