Watch Dirt Boy For Free

Touches You

If you don't like this, we can't be friends.

It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

I can appreciate the work that went into making this movie, but that still didn't make it a good movie. The story isn't bad, the execution is awful. This could definitely be on Sci Fi Theater. Childish dialogue and amateurish acting. Too bad, because I am sure it was made with a lot of blood, sweat and tears.

As the niece of the Producer, John Smalley, I should say this movie is wonderful due to the fact he is my Uncle. Well, whether he is or not, this movie is still great. I know he was very dedicated to the making of this film and it shows in every way. John Smalley did an excellent job for his first independent film and I hope he continues to make great movies such as Dirt Boy. If anyone gets the opportunity to watch this film, please do so! Thanks.

this is an excellent movie, both in plot and in the acting. If you are into films that have a well thought out plot(rather than all the other fluff that is out there)then this is a film for you to watch. Jacob Lee Hedman is Fabulous as Matty Matthews......I look forward to seeing more from him and the rest of the crew of dirt boy.

This comedic suspenseful thriller stars some unknowns in a story about Matty Matthews, a recovering drug addict saddened by the loss of his Mother whom was killed in a terrible car accident and starting a new life as a "Crime Scene Investigator"-like student, sets off to go to a summet meeting by a well reknowned teacher. He starts his journey from New York City to a Cape Cod-ish town of Attwater Commons, home to their popular writer Attwater Bridges, author of the book "Dirt Boy"(A story within a story, SEE?). But underneath the quiet and peaceful town, a sinester secret unfolds in front of Matty that only he can solve. His actions are similar to Bruce Willis' character of the doctor in "The Sixth Sense" as he tries to have the town face the truth rather than playing cover-up as he solves the puzzle with the Books-On-Tape version of the story. What was surprising to me is that the director used every location and story so eliniquently and deeply moving, you won't, AND I MEAN WON'T, want to get out the movie chair! I saw this movie at the Seattle International Film Festival's last day of showing movies ( aka Sunday, June 17, 2001, aka FATHER'S DAY). I found that the other characters in the story, aka Attwater, the police man, the teacher, and the kid, etc. etc. expect the living survivor, don't let Matty explain himself was really cute and funny, it makes seeing thrillers with ease. At the end of the film, there was a little Q&A from the director, who brought insight to his creation and was suprised when I said, "If I was a critic, I would put this film as a working director's idea of "The Sixth Sense.", to which everybody cheered (Hense my summary title, HEE HEE!! "_") You won't find this in a major movie theater yet, but check it out if the movie comes to a film festival near you! YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED!!!!
