Unique idea, great movie!
The premise of this movie is absolutely fascinating! In 1999, John Sullivan, a lonely and bitter 36 year old, starts playing with his dad's old ham radio during a Northern lights display and somehow happens to get in touch with his dad (who died 30 years earlier) in 1969, a time of innocence and the age of the Amazin' Mets. As John and his dad start to change the past, they also alter future events in both good and bad ways. Can they put things right before they lose their special connection for good?The idea is unique and stays so throughout. The underrated and execellent drama/thriller is well written and acted. The movies deals with several interesting issues, is exciting without falling to the typical thriller antics and is touching without being maudlin. Definitely one of the best movies I've ever seen. All those who had even a small part in this movie should be proud of the wonderful movie they helped make. I recommend this movie in the highest terms.
