爱德华（伊万·麦克格雷格 Ewan McGregor 饰）生性热爱自由，成年之后，他选择离开家乡，踏上了环游世界的旅程。一路上，爱德华遇见了各种各样稀奇古怪的角色，经历了无数精彩绝伦的的冒险，而他日后最大的兴趣，就是向他人喋喋不休的重复讲述他的这一段奇幻旅程。 　　威尔（比利·克鲁德普 Billy Crudup 饰）是爱德华的儿子，他并不相信父亲所讲述的那些光怪陆离的故事，甚至对此感到无比厌烦。婚后，他同父亲中断了联系，一晃眼就是数年过去。当再次得到爱德华的消息之时，威尔才知道父亲即将不久于人世，他决定去见爱德华最后一面。然而，这一次，威尔终于发现了隐藏在这些故事背后的奥秘和真相。 When Edward Bloom (Albert Finney) becomes ill, his son, William (Billy Crudup), travels to be with him. William has a strained relationship with Edward because his father has always told exaggerated stories about his life, and William thinks he's never really told the truth. Even on his deathbed, Edward recounts fantastical anecdotes. When William, who is a journalist, starts to investigate his father's tales, he begins to understand the man and his penchant for storytelling.

DON PRICE: You’re so sure, why don’t you go in andget that eye? I heard she keeps it ina box on her nighttable.
Edward looks back at the spooky house.
DON PRICE (cont’d) Or are you too scared?
EDWARD:
I’ll go in right now and get that eye.
DON PRICE: Then do it.
EDWARD:
Fine, I will.
DON PRICE: Fine, you do it.
EDWARD:
Fine, I’m doing it.
He hands Zacky his flashlight, then starts climbing the gate.
RUTHIE:
Edward, don’t!
14.
WILBUR FREELY: She’ll make soap out of you!
(to Ruthie) That’s what she does, she makes soapout of people.
Edward drops down on the far side of the gate. Truth be told, Edward is scared, but he forges ahead anyway.
Wilbur looks to Ruthie, and they’re in complete agreement.
They get the hell out of there. Zacky would run too, but Donholds him by the collar.
EXT. APPROACHING THE HOUSE Edward curves around the tall bushes that hide the front door. Anything could jump out of them.
He steps on the porch. The boards SQUEAL and CREAK, but hecontinues on. A cat SCREAMS OUT from a broken wicker rocker.
Catching his breath, Edward reaches the front door.
The doorknob is ancient brass, two projections that look likehorns. Yet Edward extends his hand, reaching closer andcloser before he finally RINGS THE DOORBELL.
Impossibly fast, the door opens, revealing an OLD WOMAN witha patch over her left eye. She looks like she’s been dead for years, but too stubborn to lie down.
EDWARD:
(calm and straightforward) Ma’am, my name is Edward Bloom, andthere’s some folks’d like to see your eye.
EXT. BACK AT THE GATE - NIGHT Zacky and Don Price wait for Edward, each moment moreconvinced he’s already dead. But suddenly, he’s back at thegate.
DON PRICE: You get the eye?
EDWARD:
I brought it.
