Trying to remember a movie or special?
 

I remember this from my childhood, but don't remember much. I want to say it could have been an after school special or an disney special. I remember a house being flooding and people clinging to the top of the house I think? I know it's a hard request but any help would be appreciated!

I believe the movie you are referring to is entitled "CNN's coverage of Hurricane Katrina."

What year would this be?

I remember a tv movie from the early-to-mid nineties called "Flood: Who Will Save our Children" (not sure why, but I do remember the full title). It was a true story about how a big children's camp tried to evacuate the kids when there was a flood happening, and the schoolbusses overturned, sweeping the children away into the flood waters. Most of the movie is the kids clinging to trees, fences, etc... a lot of them drowned, but quite a few survived.

Nah I remember it when I was a kid...sometime in the 80's or very early 90's.....It was some kind of made for tv movie I think.

haha, that was the first thing i though of was spike lee's documentary.

grrrrrrrrrrrr

"The killing of Randy Webster"

Necro bump! Finally found it. It was called Cougar, and was an ABC Weekend Special.

Holy shit, you searched for 8 years. That is epic dedication. The stuff of legend.

If I watched it when it first aired in early '84 I was only 3, so I knew I only had very scant memories of it. :)

'84 was right around my heyday. I have very scant memories of that time as well.

The movie I've seen called "Cougar" was totally different than that. ;)

So that was the first time Hilary Swank played a boy.
