Forgive me. I'm a compulsive list-maker.
Order based on combination of (a) quality and quantity of boy content and (b) my appreciation of the movie overall. Order would be completely different if I was rating them only on either one of these two criteria.
1. [b]My Life as a Dog[/b] (1985) 2. [b]Je suis le seigneur du château[/b] (1989) 3. [b]Searching for Bobby Fischer[/b] (1993) 4. [b]L.I.E. [/b] (2001) 5. [b]Léolo[/b] (1992) 6.
