Portrait of a Disadvantaged Child: Tommy Knight (1965). This film highlights several slum environments. One view dramatizes portions of a child's life, showing the effect of physical discomfort and suffering in his home, inadequate food and shelter, the psychological pressures of the slums, and the numbing exhaustion resulting from improper rest. A second environment in the slums is the home in which parents blot out part of the effect of the slums by showing pride in school achievement. The third view is the inade-quate home from which children escape into the streets.
