Leah K 01/01/2025 Unexpectedly delightful, deeply emotional and endearimg movie adaptation of an original novel. Enjoyed every stage of the character and story development. The sentiments and intentions of the plot were meaningful and beautifully portrayed. Thank you to the writer, sensitive, sweet actors and all cast and crew.

This movie would have been much better if the actors were not "hollywood beautiful people", but with average looking actors. I would have liked to see the parrot more, not just the scenes where he spoke "clues". The ending was trying to be a happy ending, but I thought about Lyman giving up his life by basically being kidnapped by Fiona in Lyman's truck and trailer home, for 'his own good' according to Fiona. Then being driven to meet Fiona's family. Poor Lyman would never be free again, but controlled by Fiona for the rest of his life with her manipulative ways.

It is a little quirkier than most, but the relationship between these two characters is so sweet that it has to be seen at least once. See more 08/07/2014 Astonishingly delightful film. See more walter m @Harlequin68 07/21/2014 In "A Bird of the Air," Lyman(Jackson Hurst, of "Drop Dead Diva") is a loner who works nights for the New Mexico highway department. Otherwise, he spends his free time taking classes at the local community college and eats at a nearby diner. That holds true until an exotic parrot drops into his lap at the trailer where he lives. While researching the true owner of the parrot and the meaning behind his enigmatic sayings, Lyman runs into Fiona(Rachel Nichols, of "The Inside," "Alias," and "Continuum" but not the Rachel Nichols who works for ESPN), an itinerant librarian. "A Bird of the Air" is a engaging and amusing romantic comedy that refreshingly relies on a cute dog for its charm this time around, instead of the usual cute baby. Beneath the surface, the movie is about the quest for knowledge and how that can improve one's life, with the mythical west as a background. That's not to mention Rachel Nichols' winning goofy performance in a definite change of pace for her. See more Read all reviews
