He’d almost forgotten that long ago he had been alive, with so much promise before him. So this late afternoon the realization that he was treading the periphery of his own life came as a shock. Above him, new leaves on old sycamores danced against the sky. Below, on the sidewalk, long shadows met the harsh light, a relief to his tired gaze.
He closed his eyes. He remembered that once he'd been young and handsome. Gently, in a descending mist, God’s grace gathered around him like a warm embrace from childhood, a time when it was so easy to see what was hidden to most. He opened his eyes and there before him was the unmistakable outline of hope

Operation Splitsville (1998)
These kids sure know a lot about sex for fifth graders
Splitsville used to come on t.v. all the time and interested me because the movie was rated PG-13.The film is kind of childish and corny because the plot to the movie is about a bunch of kids trying to get their parents divorced. So the children start a club for all the kids whose parents are divorced, and soon after begin to fight and bicker with the kids whose parents are married.
The main thing that surprised me was that these kids are in the fifth grade and are having long explicit scenes of sexual dialogue.This shocked me because Splitsville is a kids movie, and these FIFTH GRADERS are having adult conversations at their lunch table. I quote from one of the fifth graders in the movie:"It's some sort of seed right,that comes out of your nuts," what the hell is dialogue like that doing in this sort of movie.So by the end of the film you will probably understand where they get the PG-13 rating from.
Another thing that gives this movie a bonus is that the kid who plays Ernie is actor Shaun Flemming who stars in the new hit movie Jeepers Creepers 2, I think the kid is talented, I mean for his age he is only 15 years old and was actually the only funny kid in Splitsville.Besides Shaun Flemming starring in Splitsville, actress Loretta Devine(Urban Legend) has a small role as the school principal, and I enjoyed her performance.
All in all a funny at times, kid's movie. My rating:4/10 Rated PG-13 for sex related material and sexual dialogue involving adolescents.
