When an unscrupulous real estate developer sends thugs into a deteriorating tenement to gid rid of the last five tenants, they need nothing short of a miracle to stay where they are. In this delightful fantasy presented by Academy AwardŽ winner Steven Spielberg, little stands between the brave holdouts and the street. But one night, when all hope seems lost, tiny visitors from outer space mysteriously glide through their windows. As if in answer to their prayers, the incredible creatures began to turn the tide with their magical powers. Filled with dazzling special effects, the amazing story of intergalactic warmth stars the acclaimed husband - wife team of Hume Cronyn and Academy AwardŽ winner Jessica Tandy as a pair of feisty long-term tenants whose faith is rewarded in ways they never expected.
