Hay favores que no se pagan.
Un niño imagina un curioso sistema para mejorar el mundo; hacer favores incluso antes de que te los devuelvan. Es decir: no devolver favores, sino pagarlos por adelantado, y no necesariamente a quien te lo hizo a ti. Para sorpresa de todos, la desinteresada propuesta causa furor entre la gente. Entretenida comedia con toques dramáticos y un eficaz reparto. Como anécdota el personaje interpretado por Spacey es, en la novela, de raza negra, lo que provocó polémica en USA entre el colectivo afroamericano.

Helen Hunt
Arlene McKinney
In the movie 'Pay It Forward' (2000), Helen Hunt plays Arlene McKinney, a single mother struggling to balance her responsibilities and personal life. Her character is a pivotal emotional anchor in the film, showcasing a more nuanced and dramatic side compared to her well-known comedic and romantic performances, such as her role as Jamie Buchman in the TV sitcom 'Mad About You.' This role stands out in Hunt's career because it allowed her to delve into a more serious, heartfelt performance that emphasized themes of hope and change, distinguishing it from her earlier work which was largely centered on humor and lighter drama. 'Pay It Forward' thus highlights Hunt's versatility and ability to tackle complex emotional material, enriching her overall body of work.
