The future is trying to tell us something.





PLOT

--------

The siblings Noah and Emma travel with their mother Jo from Seattle to the family cottage in Whidbey Island

to spend a couple of days while their workaholic father David Wilder is working. They find a box of toys from

the future in the water and bring it home, and Emma finds a stuffed rabbit called Mimzy, and stones and a

weird object, but they hide their findings from their parents. Mimzy talks telepathically to Emma and the

siblings develop special abilities, increasing their intelligences to the level of genius. Their father

becomes very proud when Noah presents a magnificent design in the fair of science and technology, and his

teacher Larry White and his mystic wife Naomi Schwartz become interested in the boy when he draws a mandala.

When Noah accidentally assembles the objects and activates a powerful generator creating a blackout in the

state, the FBI arrests the family trying to disclose the mystery. But Emma unravels the importance to send

Mimzy back to the future.

Very good adaptation of a classic sf short story, "Mimsy Were the Borogoves" by Lewis Padgett (pseudonym used

by sf authors and spouses Henry Kuttner and C. L. Moore). Some changes, of course, updating it to present time

(story was originally set in 1942, published in 1943), expanding the story a bit -- but overall, nice work.
