Peter Frye, typical American boy, is orphaned when his parents are caught in the London Blitz. He is not told of their fate, but shuttled from one selfish relative to the next, ending with "Gramp," a kindly ex-vaudevillean. Peter and Gramp, both fond of "Irish bulls," get along fine; but the morning after Peter finally learns he's an orphan, his hair spontaneously turns green! The absurd over-reactions of stupid people overturn his life as the story becomes a parable.... (Full plot summary below)

Leave your thoughts about The Boy with Green Hair.
| Fort Worth Business PressMichael H. PriceA peculiar mixing of bigot-buster and pacifist sensibilities, rendered largely incoherent on account of Howard Hughes' attempts to transform the piece into a pro-war tract. Strange that such a safe-as-milk picture could have caused many of its talents to |
| Movie MetropolisJohn J. Puccio...a rather simplistic antiwar fantasy that pounds its message into the ground for the last twenty minutes or more. |
| User ReviewDonegal HA beautiful film with a strong message: no more war. |
| User ReviewBrenda MA first for political thinking of it's time. |
| User Reviewjames kI see this win I was a kid you just hafe to see it . it mak you thank it it will mack you cry to see the things they do t this little boy. |
| User ReviewKaren LRoss: " i prefer blue!!!!!" Danny: "I prefer women." Alice: "I prefer no hair IE miss tate |
| User ReviewGreg WEither go with the moral message or don't, but this film is so earnest, and Stockwell is so endearing (with punk-rock hair), and the message about it being ok to be an outsider so relevant to Hollywood, with Losey effected by the blacklist. Subjectively I love this film. |
| User ReviewChristopher SPost war propaganda film, love the dream sequence, the boy who later starred In quantum leap as a grown up geezer, I Have always loved this film |
| User ReviewJenny PGood Lord, Dean Stockwell can act... No matter what his age is. This movie was fantastic in everyway; way before it's time in my opinion but still rings true even today. |
| User ReviewSabra EThis movie is about racism, which is cool because I am a racist. Awesome. Green haired freaks diiieee!!! |
