In the woods, young Winnie Foster (Alexis Bledel) meets a young man, Jesse Tuck (Jonathan Jackson), who is part of a family of immortals, who take her in for fear that she might reveal their secret.

Director Jay Russell sweet 2002 heart-tugging romantic drama for Disney is a gorgeously sentimental, highly appealing romantic fantasy for all dreamers. It also stars Sissy Spacek, William Hurt, Scott Bairstow, Ben Kingsley, Victor Garber and Amy Irving.

Jeffrey Lieber and James V Hart’s screenplay is based on the novel by Natalie Babbitt.
