France
First adaptation of this novel was done in the 60's in French, second in Ireland in the 1990's and now this. Two groups of boys from adjacent towns stage a 'war' for the same stupid reasons the adults are warring: cock of the walk status.
Expensive production larded with schmaltzy touches (esp music) that grated. I really enjoyed the Irish version...if I ever want to see this story again (unlikely) that'll be my choice.
