Goodnight, Mister Tom
We're in a small English village just prior to Dunkirk. Mr. Tom" Oakley is still grieving the loss of his wife and tiny kid while he was serving in the navy during World War I, and his grief has turned him into a reclusive hermit. Now that children have been evacuated from London, volunteers to lodge them are in short supply. Mr. Tom takes in a terribly quiet 10-year-old almost against his will, who progressively discloses significant issues.
