Stranger In The Family

In this brilliant British made-for TV feature, a young man called 'Boy' (no relation to Tarzan) is born with no fingernails.  He’s gifted with a brain that eventually enables him to exert mind control over others.  Things get complicated when he falls for a pretty actress, whose agent encourages the relationship because he thinks he can exploit the boy on TV.  Adding to the plot is a mysterious surveillance team that’s hunting for the boy, (who are those guys?).  Short and sweet (about 51 min.) this moody piece really delivers. (1965)
