Tearjerker... think from the early 80s ( but not a definate) about a young barrow boy with a terminal illness who's last wish is to go to a fairground... his dad buys him a balloon and says "when its time, let go" the boy finally lets go and passes away?
No that say on the read up about a dying boy who wishes for his parents to take him to a circus... I've been trying to find this film out over a year now :-(
Quinn F, our movie expert, will certainly know.
Who's that?
He s one of our movie experts.Quote:

You don't message him. He will see this and answer. There are several other good movie responders too. Please be patient.
Is this a British film?
Yes I think so... its my father in law that keeps asking me to out for him, he tries to explain n fills up lol he says it's a real tear jerker
Was it a TV movie? I'm a librarian and cannot find this.
Yes he watched it on a video tape so I'm guessin its quite old... around the early 80's
He says the boy was a barrow boy and ended ill... when his last wish was to go to fair ground he went on a ferris wheel and his dad go him a balloon
Yay for Quinn once again!

Great film - a real tearjerker
22 July 2004 | by calico_demon (Manchester, England) – See all my reviews
I watched this film about 20 years along with another Italian release 'Last Feelings'. Both films are extremely powerful tearjerkers and were released together in the UK. They affected me so much that I think about them to this day and have recently been trying to track down copies of them - this seems to be impossible, but i still remember them quite vividly. I dare you to watch this film without shedding a tear. Especially the fairground scene at the end. Heartbreaking.
