Fly Away Home
Director Carroll Ballard and cinematographer Caleb Deschanel previously collaborated on "The Black Stallion" and "Never Cry Wolf" with "Fly Away Home" being their third family film. Anna Paquin, who plays daughter to Jeff Daniels in "Fly Away Home", would later play a love interest in "The Squid and the Whale" (2005). Upon the release of the "Squid and the Whale", Jeff Daniels said that having had the previous experience made the filming a bit awkward for both of them.
