Have you ever wondered what would it be like to change the mindset of a inner most demon? An inner most demon is when a person who has an icky feeling specific or not towards the world. The position of being placed in charge of unlayering that icky feeling can come from one's ownself and others whom are well skilled.
Just imagine if you were a preteen boy from the USA and you were sent to live in the UK (England) to meet a grandfather you didn't know. It turns out that you are also an heir to this particular grandfather as he is an Earl with a big fortune.
The grandfather is often feeling icky and it becomes your job to convince him that he can live life in happiness and not bitterness. As time goes on, the child in this adaptation is able to figure out the matter and find the best solutions possible, of course at a price of both patience and understanding by home and society.
Based on time settings of similar persuasion cinema like Oliver! (1968) and Little Men (1998), a street child with an American USA background is thrusted in the world of heirship and loyality to his grandfather, an Earl whom has a wealthy fortune for his grandson once he passes. To acquire it, process organization and reduction of natural bad habits become essential to see the experience through.
I recommend seeing all versions and read the original book because it is important to acknowledge all the adaptations as they are all unique and different in ways that only tell the story better and not at all worse. Kind regards, Aiden.
I also recommend watching the late UK Sci Fi Screenwriter for Television, Anthony Read's The Chocky Trilogy. Originally aired as a Thames TV production. It is based on the original characters and first series story later book novelisation by late UK Sci Fi author, John Wyndham. Each of the three series contains six epiodes per each series. Each of the individual eighteen episodes are a little under thirty minutes. The storyline is simple. It is about a boy, talentless at first in interested areas of Maths and Science but then meets up with a mind traveling alien friend whom needs him to be the one to carry out her mission of saving planet earth from fossil fuel industry.
