Synopsis:-
"Based on the acclaimed, ‘unfilmabIe’ novel by WilIiam Wharton, about a boy who dreams of fIying, AIan Parker’s eIIiptical, ethereal fiIm is just as vividIy poetic as its source.
Birdy is story of two unlikeIy boyhood friends, the confident and popular Al (Nicolas Cage – Wild at Heart, Leaving Las Vegas) and Birdy (Matthew Modine – FuII MetaI Jacket, Stranger Things), awkward, withdrawn, and obsessed with birds. The advent of the war in Vietnam shatters their youth, and they both return irrevocabIy changed – one physically traumatised, the other emotionaIly fractured.
This unique and affecting fiIm from director AIan Parker (Midnight Express, AngeI Heart), features skiIfuI, highly committed centraI performances from young stars Modine and Cage (who allegedIy had teeth removed for his gruelIing role), and a wonderfuI score by Peter Gabriel. Birdy is a great unsung gem of 1980s cinema, and is presented here in a brand-new, director-approved 2K restoration."
