Clown

Along with Larry Yust's 'Lottery', 'Clown' was possibly one of the two best selling ed films ever made. On the surface, it's a cute kid & dog story. Underlying is a possible subtext that fascinates us every time we view the film, and makes for a satisfying, yet ultimately ambiguous ending. Gilou Pelletier is outstanding as the small boy, and the camera work by Guy Suzuki takes wonderful advantage of the terraces of Montmartre.

Subject: "Clown" AT LAST I HAVE FOUND YOU!
After seeing this film at the age of 6 - I was both sad and uplifted. It is a beautiful story of a human heart in pain and also learning and understanding. It does seem that others who have had the similar story of seeing it at a young age - felt the same compassion for it.

I was in tears at the age of 48 again and the feeling of sadness - but it was emotion which made me once again realize that our human hearts are touched by lessons.

Subject: Wonderful short
I watched this movie over 20 years ago in grade school and I have never forgotten it. I have finally found it again and it is just as wonderful as it was when I was a child. A magnificent story and theme that caught my imagination and tugged my heart strings.
