William Franklin is a teacher who was born in Ireland and moved to the United States only to repatriate in 1939 after his leftist political views cause him to lose his job. Franklin becomes the first non-cleric instructor at St. Jude's, a school for wayward boys run by Brother John, who is a firm believer in strong discipline.
Editor's Verdict
"The movie 'Song for a Raggy Boy' is a historical drama focused on institutional abuse and a teacher's moral struggle. While the provided element 'Belief/Faith' aligns with a general Christmas theme, the synopsis gives no indication that the setting, plot, iconography, or resolution involve the Christmas season in any meaningful way. It fails to meet the criteria for a Christmas movie."
