Sweet film. <em>'The Boy Who Stole a Million'</em>, shot beautifully on location in Valencia, produces a rather simple premise but one that is nice to see unfold. It shows signs of wearing thin towards the end, but with a run time of just 84 minutes it stops before it becomes tiresome - which is ... great. The cast do well. Maurice Reyna is solid as Paco, while Virgilio Teixeira (Miguel) and Harold Kasket (Luis) support astutely. It's more so the story and locations that make this film as good as it is, it's a very pleasant production. Watch it if you get the chance.
