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.

EDWARD:
A few rabbits, but I think one of themwas already dead.
AMOS:
That would explain the indigestion.
Edward tosses him his jacket to cover his privates.
AMOS (cont’d) I was wrong about you kid. You may nothave much, but what you got, you got alot of. You could get any girl.
EDWARD:
There’s only one I want.
A beat.
AMOS:
Her name is Sandra Templeton. She’s going to Auburn. The semester’s almost over, so you better hurry.
EDWARD:
Thank you.
AMOS:
Good luck, kid.
Edward walks away. Then starts running. He has to get thereas soon as possible.
Amos sits down and scratches his ear with his foot.
EXT. BIG TOP - DAY Edward shakes Karl’s giant hand. They hug.
EDWARD (V.O.) After saying my goodbyes, I hoppedthree trains to get to Auburn thatafternoon.
63.
EXT. AUBURN UNIVERSITY - DAY We DESCEND ON the main quad, to find Edward Bloom dunking hishead in the fountain.
He changes out of his grubby shirt into a new one, just outof the package. It’s the mid-1960’s, but by the conservativedress of the passing STUDENTS, it could be any era.
EXT. SORORITY HOUSE - DAY Edward stands with a bouquet of daffodils in front of a half- open door. Through the crack we can see the edge of a YOUNGWOMAN, talking in hushed tones with another girl we can’t see.
Finally, a decision is reached. The door opens to reveal thewoman of Edward’s dreams, Sandra Kay Templeton. She’s effortlessly beautiful, pure and simple as sunlight.
He can’t believe he’s finally reached her. He half-laughs, nervous. That makes her laugh, not sure what’s going on.
EDWARD:
You don’t know me, but my name isEdward Bloom and I am in love with you.
I’ve spent the last three years workingto find out who you are. I’ve been shot and stabbed and trampled a fewtimes, had my ribs broken twice, butit’s all worth it to see you here, now, and to finally get to talk to you.
Because I am destined to marry you. I knew that from the first moment I saw you at the circus. And I know it now more than ever.
ON SANDRA, overwhelmed. All she can finally think of to sayis...
SANDRA:
I’m sorry.
EDWARD:
Don’t need to apologize to me. I mean, I’m the luckiest person you’re going tofind today... She puts her hand on the door frame. On her left ringfinger, we see a diamond.
