Birdy is a 1984 American drama film based on William Wharton's 1978 novel of the same name. Directed by Alan Parker, it stars Matthew Modine and Nicolas Cage. Set in 1960s Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the film focuses on the friendship between two teenage boys, Birdy (Modine) and Cage. The story is presented in flashbacks, with a frame narrative depicting their traumatic experiences upon serving in the Vietnam War but it's not really about that because basically Birdy was having sex with his pet canary well before the war.
