A widower struggles to raise his young son in the aftermath of terminal illness in Scott Hicks’s moving drama, based on the emotionally devastating memoir of Simon Carr.

By turns touching and funny, The Boys Are Back is a tribute to the resilience of the human spirit and a reminder that there is no instruction manual for good parenting.

Sometimes, you just have to muddle through and do as little damage as possible.
