My Left Foot

A very well done, yet somewhat boring look at the life of Christy Brown, a handicapped young man who's only movable limb is his left foot. Flickers of humor are in all the right places, but story isn't supposed to be funny. The acting is great, especially by Daniel Day-Lewis and Brenda Fricker, who each won an academy award for their performances.
