Little Lord Fauntleroy (1980 TV Movie)
10/10
The way the mother and son should be viewed
18 December 2005
Without a doubt the best of the Fauntleroy pictures. Gives a feeling of the mothers role and his generosity. At the end w/o a doubt grabs the viewers attention. Although earlier versions were also good this one was meant for a Christmas Movie and your heart will go out to The Mother and son. From the time he begun his journey from NYC and buying gifts for his friends. To his love for his mom and understanding how his grandfather needs him. lord Fauntleroy shows us how he truly is a leader. He gets people to love his grandfather and shows his love to the people though his understanding of their plight. His Mother is shown in the movie as truly a great lady. This version goes into detail on how she cares for the people. In the earlier releases we are or can only assume she is caring for the people. In this one we can truly see how concerned she is by her awareness of the conditions around there. She not only gives care but also gives money and goods to help the needy. Lord Fauntleroy's greatest show of caring is not by his showing of love to his grandfather but more importantly by his feelings. The seen where he gives the crippled boy a ride on his new pony has to be a classic and truly shows what a great man he will be
