The TVI Take

Howard Zieff's 1991 family drama, written by Laurice Elehwany. Anna Chlumsky plays an eleven-year-old in 1972 Pennsylvania whose father runs a funeral home.

The film is unusually serious about how children process death without softening the grief beat that famously traumatized a generation of theatergoers.
