BIG FISH (2003)

Big Fish is simply the story of a big man in a small town whose fate has destined him to leave a legacy of amazing feats and adventure to pass onto his son. But Ed Bloom's stories seem all too fabricated for his son Will, and as he outgrows their novelty, so too does her outgrow his relationship with his father. It isn't until Ed Bloom is diagnosed with cancer that Will forces himself to return to his childhood home in hopes of mending his relationships and uncovering the truth behind the question, "Who is Edward Bloom?"

The cast includes: Ewan McGregor, Jessica Lange, Danny De Vito, and Albert Finney.

Directed by: Tim Burton. Written by: Daniels Wallace (novel) and John August (screenplay).
