About
You can watch Little Man Tate (1991) on Hoopla with a participating library card.
Dede is a sole parent trying to bring up her son Fred. When it is discovered that Fred is a genius, she is determined to ensure that Fred has all the opportunities that he needs, and that he is not taken advantage of by people who forget that his extremely powerful intellect is harboured in the body and emotions of a child.
A child's staggering intellect threatens to outpace his emotional development, creating a gap that even the most devoted parent struggles to bridge. This quiet drama balances the isolation of being a prodigy against the simple, messy need for a normal childhood.
