Every so often, a forgotten film from the middle of the 20th century gets re-discovered and re-appraised as something ahead of it's time, something that should've been better-known, and in some cases, should've been a part of The Canon. Especially in the age of Internet and Streaming where lost gems its' way to smaller streaming services or archival video channels.

David and Lisa (1962) is one of such films. Carrying profundity and heart towards the then-taboo subject of mental health with care humanity at the time where the subject was looked down upon is a reason for this film to be remembered today.

However, there's more than heart in this underrated film, in that it tells us about life, death, love, and growth.
