"The film opens with a subjective perspective depicted throughout by the color blue – we see through the eyes of the "cursed child", a gimmick which instils both a sense of mysticism and magic. We enter a world of rural superstitions and our characters are God fearing people, afraid of the unknown and ready to believe in whatever shields them from it. The boy's problem (that he sees the world blue) is intriguing and the language used to discuss his illness has some poetic value. The moments of comic relief push this narrative into being a tragicomedy. "Blue Eyed Boy" is a good metaphor for the world we live in today: we desperately want to change what we feel is different instead of embracing another perspective.
