A ten year old black,shoe-shining orphan boy who lives in a locker in Union Station gives the city one million dollars. What a great movie!

Most other reactions to the film (besides Siskel & Ebert's) concluded that it was either sappy or all too eager to cash in on Gary Coleman's NBC-TV popularity. He only made one other feature film, *Jimmy the Kid,* but when it was released in late 1982, Siskel & Ebert didn't like any bit of it. To date, neither of the two films have been released on DVD.
