Hearts in Atlantis

Scott Hicks proves that Stephen King is not all about blood-curdling gore of the undead in this inspiring adaptation that takes a sentimental photographer down memory lane to a time when bikes, bullies and bubblegum were the totality of his childhood until a mysterious tenant with arcane spells and an alluring aura moved in upstairs. Sir Anthony Hopkins remarkably portrays the mystical man who opens the boy's eyes to his parents' true characters as well as to his potential for love, courage, strength and even telepathy. Hearts in Atlantis will leave your heart in attention.
