I watched a film a few years ago and can't think of the name! Its about a young lad who escapes from prison and ends up living with an old lady, he cleans her gutter for living there, and after staying there for a while they become quite close, she cuts his hair and allows him to bath there. Well by the end of the movie the police find out where he is and come to take him back, it was quite emotional but the old lady ends up paying for him to get out and he goes back to live with her.. Anyone any ideas?

Sounds like Walking Across Egypt (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0175317/)
