Martian Child

Imagine this... you're sitting in the theater before a movie and the previews for "Coming Attractions" begin (also imagine that there are lice in your hair due to the low standards held by those who manage the dollar theater off of Lorna Road. However, you must remember it's a dollar theater. How much can you really expect?). You're soon drawn into a heart-warming story about a young boy with no parents who is charitably taken in by a hard-working writer (John Cusack). The boy, who claims that he's sent from Mars to study human nature (I know... gay. But at the time it seemed great), quickly forms a deep bond (not sexual) with the man who took him into his home and became his guardian. Bits of the story are quickly revealed (like a hooker's panties) and you find yourself thinking "I really think I want to see this!" The next moment the title appears on the screen, and you laugh and think "just kidding." There you have it... "Martian Child." Yep. That's the title. I'm being serious. You'll see.
