Über dieses Produkt

Product Information

Winner of the Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature, Ira Wohl's BEST BOY remains one of the most beloved and critically-acclaimed docs of all time. Wohl's story centers around his 52-year-old cousin Philly, who has been mentally retarded since birth and has never lived apart from his parents, Max and Pearl Wohl. Now elderly, ailing, and concerned about Philly's future after their deaths, the Wohls are prompted by Ira to begin teaching their son self-reliance. As Philly moves from summer camp to training center and finally to an independent group home, BEST BOY becomes a stark but tender portrait of a family confronting life's impermanence and change. The DVD edition features Wohl's follow-up film BEST MAN, which revisits Philly 20 years later as he continues to live on his own.

  • Best boy! Best man!

    This is a heartwarming true story about a man who has been mentally challenged since birth. It follows his progress from dependency upon his parents to a much fuller life. This documentary has received many awards.
