Movie Review: Radio Flyer

The original radio flier screen play was more fantastical with real monsters, talking animals and a hovering red wagon that could actually fly the studio. A by product of their changes was an ambiguous ending that was in effect, much darker. The end of the movie is bobby dying when he takes off in that radio flier. There isn't a successful flight. It's essentially suicide, which is really heavy. So the addition of mike as an dult with hank's playing that character, was added as a means of carrying on the phantasy of bobby did get away.
