I didn't expect much from "Little Wing", the poster is unassuming and the topic of racing pigeons is not that exciting. However I was in for a nice surprise. Starting with a well-though story through great acting and ending on a very emotional note.
The story revolves around Kaitlyn (Brooklyn Prince), a teenager who has a complicated life with school, parents and friends, just a tad more than the usual stuff. She tries to help her mom save her house but doing it in all the wrong ways.
I think Brian Cox is the only other famous actor in this cast, however all the actors are doing a great job and the dialogues are realistic and sincere. I'm not sure how much is taken from the short story this is based on, but the direction, photography and writing is all well done here.
The movie is funny at parts, but in general it is a drama with very realistic situations, nothing extravagant, not real "bad guys" and "good guys" but that's where its charm comes from, we are all slightly good and slightly bad sometimes.
Overall this movies gets a two thumb up from me, if you like drama with some excitement in it, and a lot of heart, "Little Wing" might just be the thing for you. Exact score: 78 / 100.
