They thought it was amusing and that it looked realistic. "I enjoyed the boy's singing." Kids enjoyed conflict with bullies. "I liked when Handel tells Jamie, 'Listen to the voice deep inside your heart.'
Beautifully produced. Provides an excellent introduction to the "Messiah," with a wide range of humor, music, values and historical commentary. Shows how new friends support one another. Somewhat harsh and scary at times and moves rather slowly.
James, a Dublin street kid, is enrolled in an upper-crust school where he is treated like an outsider. He is befriended by Handel and chosen as a principal choirboy for the "Messiah." Jamie is rescued by Handel. The "Messiah" is a huge success.
