Movie Review: 'Saint-Ex' (1996)

Once there was a movie about a man named Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. He was a pilot who delivered the mail and also wrote the children's classic The Little Prince. Nobody wanted to release the movie about him in theaters, so it ended up going directly to video stores. But it did not deserve such a fate. Most biopics are boring to look at, but this one is very beautiful. The special effects don't look like the ones in movies about dinosaurs and aliens. They look like make-believe — like magic. The grown-ups who make movies in Hollywood have forgotten about magic. They should watch this movie. B
