What's that one movie with that big kid who's dumb and the little kid who can't walk and is going to die but is very smart?

I remember seeing the dumb kid giving the smart kid a piggy back ride on the cover of the movie.

I can't remember it for the life of me.

In the movie, the smart kid helps the dumb kid get smart and the dumb kid acts as the smart kid's legs and walks around with him and beats people up for him.
In the end the smart kid dies and the dumb kid is kinda smart and goes on with life.

I think the dumb kid's parents get a divorce in the beginning.

<< Shawshank Redemption >>



I was thinking that as well. Too bad the main character was the president of a bank. Like the total opposite of handicapped.

Awakenings with Robin Williams in it. I saw it during AP Psychology and it was pretty interesting.
The ending is sad though :(.

[EDIT: Oh I forgot to mention what it is about. There's a kid who becomes afflicted with a disease (malaria?) and it leaves him in a state where he is essentially without life. Robin Williams comes in as a new doctor who feels for these mentally absent type of people and finds a use for a drug for these people. The kid now an adult (Robert De Niro), along with the rest of the patients, experience life and how much it changed... I won't go any further now]

I think that movie that you guys are talking about with the dumb kid and smart kid is Simon Birch.

Another good movie would be Rainman
