Son of Rambow
Make Believe. Not War.
Pity you look so much like a girl....
This whimsical tale is set in a small town in England during the 1980s. A young boy belongs to a religious sect which forbids modern entertainment, including movies and TV. One day, he is befriended by the school's bad boy, and gets to watch a pirate copy of Rambo. Enthralled, it's not long before the two boys are busy with their own remake. Later, when a cool French exchange student joins the project, their Popularity Status gets a huge boost. However, the little star's mom is not happy about his ventures into the dark side, and calls for help.
