Adam receives a flashlight with special powers: every liar it shines on flies into the air. Production was cancelled in 1965/66 due to the film's political content. Only in 1989/90 could the director reconstruct the film, where missing sounds and images are replaced with script inserts.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

When You’re Grown Up, Dear Adam is an acquired taste at 4.6/10. We recommend checking the trailer and synopsis before diving in.

Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.

A classic from 1966. They don't make them like this anymore — which is exactly why you should watch it. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
