The Little Fugitive
Directed by Morris Engel
Widely regarded as one of the most influential and enjoyable films of the American independent cinema, LITTLE FUGITIVE is an utterly charming fable that poetically captures the joys and wonders of childhood. When a seven-year-old boy is tricked into believing he killed his older brother, he gathers his meager possessions and flees to New York’s nether wonderland: Coney Island. Upon and beneath the crowded boardwalk, Joey experiences a day and night filled with adventures and mysteries, resulting in a film that is refreshingly spontaneous and thoroughly delightful.
