Back in the '70's and early '80's my elementary school would would show us this short film every year. I just don't get it, at all. A kid finds a balloon. The balloon follows him around. His mother wont let the balloon in the house, so it hovers outside his window (kind of creepy). It is not like I hated it as a kid, but every damn year they showed it to us. Everyone else writing a review seems to love it, God bless them, but I didn't get it then, and I don't get it now. Every year, every stinking year, they'd make us sit through this garbage. I have to add another line or IMDb will not let me post this, so that is what this last line is about.
