With moments of heightened realism and stunning cinematography audiences are placed inside the mind of a dyslexic child like never before. With a teacher who thinks he's lazy and a bully who constantly mocks him... all hope seems lost. John's mother Linda takes matters in her own hands and researches the root of this problem. She finds out that John is not dumb or lazy... he is dyslexic. A tale of triumph with a message that needs to be heard, come see the world through dyslexic eyes. ## Product Details - **Format:** Color, DVD, NTSC - **Contributor:** Carol Kraft, Kenlyn Kanouse, Jennifer Davis, Nancy Cronig, Donna Ann Ward, John Kohm, Kyle Dietz, Lucana Luciano, Remy Thorne, Ed Zajac, Carla Valentine, Tristan Price, Vincenzo Giammanco - **Language:** English - **Runtime:** 30 minutes - **Number Of Discs:** 1 ## Images ![bAd [DVD] - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51r6co4xx2L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic, touching. *by C***S on April 21, 2010* I was pleasantly surprised with this short film. It's touching, good acting, great cinematography.The way that dyslexia is portrayed is fantastic. Not enough people understand the difficulty dyslexic children face or the large number of them that do undiagnosed and end up in remedial or special-ed classes (« retarded » classes in the 60s when this takes place). While I am not dyslexic I found myself identifying with John (Remy Thorne), feeling his anguish. A first-class script brings this from a great fictional film to a surprisingly educational film.An overall success, it is difficult to find shortcomings in this film. No special features, I guess, but since there were none expected it's not exactly a disappointment. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid Depiction of Kids with Learning Disabilities - Not Gay *by M***N on June 11, 2008* Being dyslexic myself, I identified strongly with the main character of this short movie. I was picked on very much the same way he was, and suffered similar emotions. I agree with the preceding reviews that it should be MANDATORY viewing for all PK-8G teachers and administrators. I also especially liked the visuals in the background, but I don't want to give that away to those who have not seen it. That was the best part of the movie (for me) and was a very cleaver visual device.The lead actor and the actress portraying his mother were great, but I found the rest of the cast stilted or too stereotypical. That may be more the fault of the writing than the fault of the actors, but it came off as amateurish.Also, kids with dyslexia and other learning disabilities may excel at other activities other than reading and school work (math, art, sports, music, woodworking, sewing, scouting) and while there was a passing reference that he was good at math, none of his "victories" or "strengths" were depicted until the end of the movie. A kid with learning disabilities will often try to cover-up that fact by spending his/her time doing those things in which they excel and therefore gain acceptance from their parents and peers. But, since this movie was short, and had a focused message, that side was never explored or depicted.The tags associated with this movie were wrong and inappropriate. This is not a "coming of age movie" and there is no sexual innuendo or nudity of any sort. Those references in the tags should be deleted. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is the goods *by R***R on October 1, 2010* This is a terrific movie. I watched it because I am friends with Remy Thorne. Up until I saw this I thought he was a good actor, after seeing this I know he is going to become a household name. Ordinarily i'm not moved by drama, i'm sitting mocking real human drama. But this is something special. Remy is a champ and I wish him the best luck with his future projects.Don't just take my word for it, buy this and see for yourself. This is a story of victory in the face of adversity from the system (external). As well as adversity from dyslexia (Internal). --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tw/products/149174957-bad-dvd](https://www.desertcart.tw/products/149174957-bad-dvd) --- *Product available on Desertcart Taiwan* *Store origin: TW* *Last updated: 2026-05-04*
