Edison: The Wizard of Light
(1998)
TV Movie
Country: Canada
Genre: Family Drama
Synopsis
Thomas Edison is obsessed by a vision: "What if I could do for the eye what the phonograph does for the ear?" Edison's prototype is jostled by Jack, a scruffy 12 year old who crashes into the lab while fleeing a truant officer. Edison's first inclination is to throw the brat back to the wolves but he recognizes something of himself in the boy and instead covers for Jack. The boy becomes a kind of Sorcerer's Apprentice to Edison, as together they create the first motion pictures.
