Dustin Hoffman has a strong role in this movie about a boy choir and its newest member who is struggling with his own confidence after the death of his mother and re-connecting somewhat with his father who abandoned him at birth.
An excellent feel good movie with a somewhat predictable plot line and conclusion and oh, the goose bump producing voices of a boys choir.
