This film is the real deal. It's the story of one man following his dreams and helping a boy follow his, and in the process becoming a man. If you're looking for something down to earth and authentic, this is it. The scene at the end when you finally see Godfrey take flight is downright euphoric. I've watched it many times in a row and had a grin plastered to my face the whole time. Highly recommended.
