Between a silent boy and a beautiful girl, lies an amazing secret.
At 14, Millie (Lucy Deakins) bears two burdens: the ache of her father's death and the anxiety of a new neighborhood and school. She meets Eric (Jay Underwood), the strange, mute boy next door who dreams of flying. Together they learn if you wish hard enough, anything's possible.
Written and directed by Nick Castle (The Last Starfighter, Dennis the Menace), The Boy Who Could Fly is a poignant, uplifting fable ringing with truth and tenderness and graced with a superb supporting cast: Bonnie Bedelia, Fred Gwynne, Fred Savage, Colleen Dewhurst and Louise Fletcher. To dream is to love. To love is to soar. To soar is to be healed. Take off with this tale and experience magical moviemaking.
