Leo Movie Review 2002

Craving love from his dispirited mom who sees him as all that went wrong in her past, Leo connects with incarcerated Stephen during a class writing project. Through their letters they become each other's lifeline and upon his release Stephen is determined to find him. Wants to give an twisty ending and boasts lots of acting talent but payoff doesn't deliver.
