    Is the Black Balloon a true story?

    • Thomas is supposed to protect Charlie from himself, and perform the damage control. The story elements of "The Black Balloon" could have been manipulated to make the film false and cute. In some circles, that would be interpreted as upbeat. The film tries to be true. The uplift comes in how the family, and Jackie, respond to Charlie.

    What happens in the Black Balloon?

    • And a crisis is building at home; his mom is pregnant again; his dad, Simon ( Erik Thomson ), insists on bed rest for her, and when Simon is away, the burden of running the household falls on Thomas. "The Black Balloon" establishes this family with a delicate mixture of tenderness and pain. Charlie is not made into a cute movie creature.
