I Am David Chronicles a Journey That Takes a Preachy Turnnew
Based on Anne Holm's 1963 novel North to Freedom, I Am David takes a taut tale and gradually deflates it. David begins as a compelling escape thriller, but as the story becomes more symbolic, it takes on schmaltzy baggage that brings it heavily to the ground.
