Gazillion Movies Review :
Birdy (Matthew Modine), a Vietnam veteran, is heavily marked by his war experiences. He stays, totally being introverted, in a psychiatric institution of the American army. As a child he was obsessed by the idea to be able to fly as a bird and now he believes that he is one of his winged friends of his youth. For days, he sits squat down at the side of his bed, looking to the light that is falling down through the small window. Medication no longer has effect on Birdy and finally the psychologist call in Al Columbato (Nicolas Cage), an old friend of Birdy and also a wounded Vietnam veteran. Al tries to get Birdy out of his dream world by dredging up childhood memories...
