Bully, The; ; DRAMATIZES THE PROBLEMS CREATED BY A TOO-AGGRESSIVE ADOLESCENT. CHICK, A YOUNG BOY IN HIS EARLY TEENS, LARGE FOR HIS AGE, DECIDEDLY AGGRESSIVE IN HIS RELATIONSHIPS WITH OTHERS.; ; ; Ken Smith sez: This film, with no narration, pits “Chick” Allen (the bully) against all the good kids in his class. Chick wants to mess up the class picnic, but his plans are thwarted by “Skipper,” one of Chick’s cronies, who has an asymmetrical head and big, floppy ears. Featuring a cast of especially bad teen actors with flat Kansas twangs; “Ginger” is particularly awful. The film ends without resolution.
