Product Details:
Returning home from the Vietnam War, two friends attempt to settle back into society, but one of them remains traumatised by the past. To escape an irrational world and the horrors of the Vietnam War, Birdy (Matthew Modine from FULL METAL JACKET) sits in an almost catatonic state in an Army hospital, where he has come to believe he is one of the feathered creatures of his boyhood dreams. In an effort to break Birdy’s silence, his psychiatrist brings in Al Columbato (FACE/OFF and CITY OF ANGELS star Nicolas Cage), Birdy’s loyal friend. Al desperately tries to reach the disturbed Birdy and bring him back to reality – but the key may lie in their youth, where the eccentric Birdy first donned wings and Al helped him to fly. With stunning performances, an original story and the haunting music of Peter Gabriel, BIRDY soars as a powerful movie experience that will haunt your memory forever.
