Name this bizarre movie....?!
Question: I remember as a little kid I watched a movie about kids living in (what I assumed was) an orphanage. I remember it was dark all the time and they were always inside. But one day, the sun came out and the children were allowed to go outside (I remember their eyes adjusting to the light) and there were flowers everywhere because of the sun. So the children went around and picked the flowers and they were running and laughing and happy. But then the sun went away and it started to rain and they were sad because they had to come back inside.
Sorry if I sound like a 4 year-old when I try to explain it, but that's pretty much how old I was when I saw it!

It's called "All Summer in a Day" and this question seems to be coming up a lot recently. The movie was based on a short story by Ray Bradbury.
Update: You're welcome. I saw it as well when it came out, but remembered reading the story as well.
Yeah, it seems this question has come up a few times in the last month for some reason.
Sounds kinda familar
Its not flowers in the attic is it?
