| Notes | Gideon is a man with a learning difficulty raised by his aunt in South Carolina. When his aunt re-marries she can no longer cope with him so he goes to the nearest institution. Unfortunately for him this is a retirement home. Fortunately for them his innocence sparks a new lease of life in them. Christopher Lambert plays Gideon which should be interesting. Since "Greystoke" and "Subway" he hasn't really achieved much in the way of quality. And here he plays someone from rural Carolina, and he's French isn't he? No, he's American, born in New York but raised in Switzerland and he went to the Paris Conservatoire.
