Even more affecting was Danuel Pipoly’s Piggy. I wouldn’t want to be stuck on an island with that guy let alone in a helicopter. The other cast members were also impassioned: Chris Furrh did a good job progressing from an a dventure seeker into a violent dictator. He has the rare ability to be simultaneously authentic and charming without precociousness. His performance stayed on my mind for several days after I watched it. I sympathized with him, rooted for him, and cried with him when all seemed to be lost. He seemed like a fairly disciplined student and at the same time just a kid, thrown into a situation where he tried to do his best, as adults would have wanted. I was especially moved by Balthazar Getty’s poignant portrayal of Ralph. Yet, what really made me love it was the performances of the young cast. The 1990 version of the well-known, well-loved classic is told in vivid color and with exciting action sequences. ![]() ![]() Balthazar Getty gives a poignant performance
