Thank you for this Movie. I 've enjoyed. Story and actors was fantastic.

This movie is really good and touching, people and nature, love and courage, really great! I couldn't help my tears when I first watched it.

Spread Your Wings (2019), directed by Nicolas Vanier, is a charming family film that, despite its familiar subject matter, manages to captivate and engage. Based on a true story, the film follows a father and son who undertake the remarkable task of teaching a flock of endangered geese to migrate using an ultralight aircraft. From the outset, the film draws viewers in with its sweet and heartwarming narrative, and the portrayal of the connection between the characters and the animals stands out as one of its major strengths.

One of the film's most compelling aspects is the human-animal bond depicted between the father, son, and the geese. This relationship is portrayed with such authenticity and warmth that it profoundly resonates with audiences. The growth and development of this connection, alongside the challenges the characters face, highlight the emotional depth of the story. Nicolas Vanier skillfully brings this relationship to life, making it relatable and engaging for viewers.

The film's location also plays a crucial role in its success. The stunning natural landscapes depicted throughout the film not only enhance its visual appeal but also reinforce its environmental message. The pristine and picturesque settings serve as a powerful backdrop to the story, emphasizing the importance of nature conservation. This visual splendor, combined with the father and son's efforts to save the geese, underscores the deep connection between humanity and the natural world.

However, the film's music falls short of making a significant impact. While music is a key element in creating the right atmosphere for a film, it does not quite reach the level of cohesion and enhancement expected in this case. The soundtrack may leave some viewers feeling that it lacks the emotional resonance needed to fully complement the film's other elements.

The theme of the film, although engaging, is somewhat repetitive and has been explored in various ways in cinema before. Stories about saving endangered species and the bond between humans and nature are not new. Despite this, Spread Your Wings manages to remain engaging due to its heartfelt execution and attention to detail, maintaining the audience's interest throughout.

In summary, Spread Your Wings is a delightful family film that, despite some shortcomings in music and a somewhat familiar storyline, offers a heartwarming and visually captivating experience. The film's emphasis on the beautiful connection between humans and animals, paired with its stunning natural settings, makes it a touching and memorable viewing experience.

There are a few weak spots in this movie - very few - that get soft and sentimental to excess. The family problems - a 14 year old boy largely estranged from his father - is banal and has been told many times. But once we get into the real meat of this movie, the transformation of a spoiled kid into a young man through acts of real devotion and courage, this film becomes not just very good but extraordinary. The young boy, who is not cute or in any way cinematographic but just, in appearance, a normal kid, is also a first-rate actor.

The crossing of the North Sea - I won't explain that here, because I don't want to spoil anything - had me riveted to the screen, but so much of the return trip is just astounding.

The aerial photography is also worth far more than the price of admission.

Go see this movie. If you know a 14 year old kid, be sure to take him with you. If you were ever a 14 year old kid, be sure to let him out so he can experience this movie as well. Take a few handkerchieves as well. Even if you're a manly man, the 14 year old kid inside you may get the better of you - and make you better in the process.

"Donne-moi des ailes" is a true tale of innocent courage. A child risks it all to save his family of geese, by taking them across hundreds of miles. It kept me engaged throughout, and awoke in me a sense of wonder. It is heroic in a way that children of this time ought to know. Without being preachy it encourages us to act on our beliefs, and to give our children a world to inherit.
