About Thank You Jack
Karl is a cheerful and endearing 8-year-old, in spite of being terminally ill with a rare neuro-muscular disease. His single mother Judy tries to give him a normal life, and Karl befriends an elderly man called Jack.
Directed by Rolf de Heer, Thank You Jack leans on a strong ensemble — Ritchie Singer, Bill Lyle, Roy Lyle — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1986.
