A risky title for a movie, particularly for a dish of sentimental tripe about a peewee prestidigitator who has Whoopi Goldberg for a put-upon foster mom and Gerard Depardieu for an imaginary playmate. The playmate eventually expands his repertoire to imaginary dance partner, imaginary family therapist, imaginary educator, imaginary moralizer. Imagination is indeed the subject; it is missing in the treatment. With Haley Joel Osment and Nancy Travis; directed by Norman Jewison. (1996) — Duncan Shepherd
