Title: Deformed man friends with kid? Post by: akiratubo on December 08, 2017, 12:11:25 PM I think I saw this around the late 1980s or so. A little kid made friends with a deformed man who wore a trench coat and a mask, it was either a gas mask or a plague doctor mask. That's really all I remember, aside from it being pretty boring.

If this is the film the original poster is asking about, then it is loosely based upon the 1972 juvenile novel by Isabelle Holland. I say loosely, because the film downplays the implied suggestion in the novel, that the man and the boy--at least once--engaged in sex. Working where I was at the time, I can still remember how controversial that idea was. |
