About this movie

Fred Savage (TV's "The Wonder Years") and Bonnie Bedelia ("Presumed Innocent," "Die Hard") star in a heartwarming story about the special friendship between two teenagers struggling to adjust to life after each suffers a great loss. A splendid supporting cast -- including TV heartthrob Jason Priestley ("Beverly Hills, 90210"), Emmy-winner Colleen Dewhurst ("Murphy Brown"), Fred Gwynne ("My Cousin Vinny") and Academy Award-winner Louise Fletcher ("The Cheap Detective," "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest") -- rounds out this story of belief in the impossible and in the magical. A wonderful film for the whole family. MPAA Rating: PG © 1989 Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc. All Rights Reserved

Saw this years ago...fred savage pees in the water gun and squirts the other kid in the face with his pee..... 😳 And his uncle is the guy how played in the adams family.... Who gets wasted drunk every day and trys to land wine corks on their end all day long. The girl from the great out doors... Cute lotta attitude.... It started a revolt with women in 1985-86...
