This Made for Television film, written/directed/produced by Michael Landon , while it has the look of a TV movie and a little too pat of a wrap-up, features a terrific , sympathetic performance by Lance Kerwin (later in TV's JAMES AT 15 and SALEM'S LOT) as a young teenager who still wets the bed. His humiliation is compounded by his Mother (a TOTAL bitch and that's being kind) hanging his soiled sheets out his bedroom window and He having to haul ass to yank them out of sight of the neighbors and friends. Check it out on YOUTUBE. ***1/2
