Info

Pete, an eight-year-old Catholic boy growing up in the suburbs of Chicago in the mid-1970s, attends Catholic school, where as classes let out for the summer, he's admonished by a nun to follow the path of the Lord, and not that of the Devil. Perhaps taking this message a bit too seriously, Pete decides it's his goal for the summer to help someone get into heaven - by trying to convert a Jew to Catholicism.

Stolen Summer Audience Reviews

Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.
JinRoz For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!
Contentar Best movie of this year hands down!
Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
guimaras29 The movie may not be the best quality in its artistic concept but when you view the film for its contents, (honestly, there are lapses in the plot but I would like to understand the director) the movie has its magic spell for viewers who likes religious-themed films.The movie explores the facet not everyone would like to traverse - Christian and Jews and faith explained - through the heart and mind of an eight year old boy. When you watch the film, Christians are dazed and maybe, Jews too. Well, there's a bunch of good acting. The lead and the supporting acts are classic. There are short cuts in the story, but it doesn't matter. And the artistry, never mind, except that the director pointed out his message just right - not in the eyes, but in the heart. For film critics, this isn't your movie.
jeedmoky I thought that this movie was wonderful. Sure, you can tell that there wasn't a huge budget but it got it's point across. I thought that it's story line was not only great but believable. I think that it is a movie that everyone should watch. It will show you that people are people no matter what religion. Maybe if everyone saw it, there wouldn't be so much hate in this country. Pete's lesson is a great one for us all to learn.
sarge_5150 This is a good outing for a first-time director. I saw the HBO series first and was quite surprised at how well this film turned out. The script is good; the subject matter is powerful. The actors turned out great performances. Quinn and Pollack both did outstanding jobs. I think a huge amount of credit needs to go to the crew on this film, but I think Pete Jones did a great job.
johnsaucier1977 Despite what you may have seen on project greenlight that would depict this film as a film that was not put together well and full of problems, it's not. This film is one of those rare films that invokes some feeling and those are always good in my book. Whether you have or haven't heard of project greenlight, rent this film.
