I saw "Hope and Glory" in the theater when it was first released, and again on video a number of years ago. It is a very good film, and it is totally boy-centric. Sebastian is one of the cutest boy actors of all time. There's no total nudity, but he does gad about in his swim trunks for an extended sequence.
Ever since I read the novel "Skipped Parts," I've been wishing for a movie version. Hopeful told us about the existence of this movie many months ago back on BoyChat. However, it never got a wide release, so this is pretty much of a direct-to-video release. Bug Hall is the featured younger boy; his character is the center of the novel, but I wonder if maybe he's less of the center of the film? Anyway, the movie is about a critical stretch of his life when he learns the significant things about life, love, and biology (the "skipped parts"). This is a boy-girl film, not a boy-boy or (god forbid!) man-boy film, and I doubt there is any nudity, but it WAS a good book.
