six random thoughts on the 1939 film 'boy slaves'
1. it wasn't about what i thought it was going to be about
2. i love a frontcard that tells you what to think (child slavery - bad)
3. if a gang of hobo youths attack you on your first day on the road they might just end up befriending you by nightfall
4. but if they think you're a stool pigeon it could be a hard tag to shake
5. and if you're a rich kid who tells them you fear catching diseases from them your all white outfit doesn't stand a chance
6. it gets an extra star from me for being 64 minutes long
