I have a certain affection for “Robbie”,
which is actually a Transport Safety film - if only for the utterly sadistic parents at the end.
“The film ends with a disfigured Robbie confined to a wheelchair. He is watching some other children play football, with a commentary by the narrator about how he will never be able to play again. The final shot is of his football boots, which he will now never need again, hanging up on the back of his bedroom door at home.”
(Who on earth would taunt their kid like that?!)
