Little Boy Blue

About This Movie

So, 'Little Boy Blue' is this eerie little film that kind of creeps up on you. It’s set on a desolate farm, which really sets the tone—it feels heavy, almost suffocating at times. The pacing is deliberate, letting the tension build slowly as the girl discovers this boy locked away. It’s unsettling how they handle the themes of isolation and hidden trauma, which I think makes it stand out. The performances are raw and grounded, especially the girl’s—she carries so much weight in her expression alone. Practical effects are minimal but effective, enhancing the bleak atmosphere without overdoing it. It’s not flashy, but there's something haunting about its simplicity. A quiet film that lingers in your mind, for sure.
