Mental Minor

>  

About a Boy (2002)


Though a romantic comedy the mother's condition of severe depression and tendency to suicide attempts is serious and is the catalyst for Will's involvement with Marcus and Will's change in attitudes. It is the strength of the film that it can balance this serious mental illness alongside the main romantic plot.
