Synopsis
Three Wishes (1995) is an American family drama with a thread of magic you can watch online on iFILM. Director Martha Coolidge sets it in early 1950s small-town America: war widow Jane Holman (Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio) accidentally hits a drifter named Jack McCloud with her car and invites him to stay until his leg heals.
Patrick Swayze plays Jack at a quiet register — unhurried, a little elusive — and it's exactly right for someone the film never fully explains. The two boys warm to him at the speed kids actually do, especially the older one, Tom (Joseph Mazzello), who's been missing a father longer than he's willing to say. There's something off-the-grid about Jack, and the film holds that ambiguity without forcing a resolution.
Gentle and slightly melancholy — the kind of family film that doesn't hand you the moral. Stream Three Wishes online on iFILM.
