i try to love this movie . i really do . kevin bacon play a cerebral palsy victim who be befriend by a 10 year old girl whose fantasy of dig to china and fly away in a balloon and and so on and be her way of cop with a dreary existence . i admit i do fast forward through one of the scene in which the two of them share friendship and simple pleasure while soulful piano music play in the background . okay and three or four of those type scene . maybe nine or ten . okay and okay and it be fourteen . but i do sit and watch most of them .
