December Boys

The brotherly bond between four Australian orphans (Daniel Radcliffe, Lee Cormie, Christian Byers, and James Fraser) who share December birthdays and live in a Catholic convent in the Outback is ultimately strengthened in this heartwarming, bittersweet, factually inspired, coming-of-age film narrated by Max Cullen when a kindhearted, elderly couple (Jack Thompson and Kris McQuade) offers to take them in for a summer holiday during the 1960s, where the eldest cynical orphan has his first kiss with a sexually precocious teenager (Teresa Palmer) and one dreams of being adopted by a nearby barren couple (Sullivan Stapleton and Victorian Hill).
