Plot Summary

This is a gentle, innocent movie about the reflections of an aging man (David Morse), who returns to his home town after the death of his best friend. Memories of life at age eleven floods back as it was a magical time that changed his life. Three eleven-year-old children, Bobby Garfield (Anton Yelchin), Carol Gerber (Mika Boorem), and John "Sully" Sullivan (Will Rothhaar), share their lives. Carol and Bobby have a special affection for one another including sharing a kiss "by which all others will be measured." Bobby lives with his mother, Liz (Hope Davis), a bitter, vain woman who looks for pleasures for herself without sharing much with her son. Into their lives comes a mysterious new boarder, Ted Brautigan (Sir Anthony Hopkins), who befriends the boy, but generates distrust from the mother. As time passes, the man and boy share confidences, and special powers are revealed. The man warns the boy to be on the lookout for the "Low Men in Yellow Coats" who are seeking him. The two share a summer's adventures and come to love one another before the inevitable happens. A confrontation with a school bully also changes everyone. Written by John Sacksteder

Did You Know?

Edit
Trivia Sir Anthony Hopkins discussed psychic ability and synchronicity with director Scott Hicks in an interview included on the DVD. In that exchange, he tells how he had been in Florence, filming Hannibal (2001), and reading a non-fiction book by William Goldman. In the book, Goldman discussed previously working with Hopkins, and discussed Kathy Bates in Misery (1990). Hopkins recalled thinking that it would be interesting to work with Goldman again, and it would be interesting to work on a Stephen King story. Two days later, a call came that there was a script for him to read, by Goldman, based on a King story. Hopkins accepted immediately. See more »
Goofs The shot is flipped at the end of the movie when Bobby is riding his Schwinn bike. The kickstand is on the right side and the chain on the left (at around 1h 35 mins), opposite of where they should be (at 15:32-15:56). Also, note that one can clearly see the name "Schwinn" reversed on the side of the bike in this scene (at around 1h 35 mins). See more »
