Boys Town in Naples

Decent film about a priest who goes to great lengths to try to help the poor homeless boys living on the streets of Naples.

The film follows a good track at first, but eventually loses its way and finishes up with a sappy melodramatic ending. An interesting aspect of the movie is that it shows some of the long reaching effects of helping these kids. I appreciated that some characters were allowed to be complex and not just monolithic.
