Thanks for the survey, joseph. Poland has produced some very good boy movies throughout the years.
I have been especially happy with some of their more recent releases.
Swinki is going to be at or near the top of my list for the best films of 2009 thanks to the powerful performance by Filip Garbacz. Damian Ul was also fantastic in
Sztuczki the year before. Adam Werstak was a notch below those two but still pretty good in 2007's
Wszystko Bedzie Dobrze and Piotr Jagielski was exceptional in
Jestem.
Polish boy movies seemed particularly strong in the late 1960's early 1970's period. I haven't seen any of the films from this time, but would most like to see
Abel twoj brat from among the many works produced in those years.
Since this thread is filled with pictures, my contribution will be of two Polish boy actors so far unmentioned in this thread;
Jakub Romanowski star of a peculiar but still pretty good film
Hiena.
