British screenwriter-director John Boorman's "Hope and Glory" is his cinematic googly. It pretends to be all sad and serious, while having a good laugh.

In the film, the setting of that "game" is England during the Blitz of World War II, played principally through the eyes of 9-year-old Billy (Sebastian Rice Edwards) and his mom, Grace (Sarah Miles). Boorman based Billy's experiences, loosely, on his own as a child in war-torn England....
