O Menino dos Cabelos Verdes
Producer
Peter Frye, um típico garoto norte-americano, perde os pais quando eles são pegos por uma blitz, em Londres. Ninguém diz a ele que seus pais morreram e que agora ele é um órfão. E assim, sem ele próprio saber o porquê, vai sendo despachado da casa de um parente para o outro, todos igualmente egoístas e nenhum interessado em ajudá-lo. Peter acaba indo parar na casa de Gramp, o mais gentil dos seus anfitriões. Peter e Gramp parecem se dar bem, mas na manhã seguinte em que é avisado que seus pais morreram, o cabelo de Peter, subitamente, adquire a cor verde. As reações absurdas das pessoas que o cercam fazem com que O Menino dos Cabelos Verdes se torne uma parábola. Alguns críticos consideram esse trabalho como sendo diferente de tudo feito no cinema americano, até então.
