Description
Milly Niceman (Pamela Segall Adlon), a 14-year-old girl who has
grown frustrated with her mother's attempts to curtail her
tomboyish nature. Her mother, Doris believes that Milly's actions
are inappropriate for a girl and that she be better off showing
more interest in dances and dresses. When her best friend's younger
brother, Malcolm (Seth Green) sells her a spell that will grant her
deepest wish that will only work during the upcoming eclipse, Milly
jumps at the chance. She performs the spell and believes that it
has failed. The next morning, Milly discovers that not only was the
spell successful, but it turned her into a boy. She tells her
family about what happened and to her surprise, her father
encourages her to explore her masculinity.
As a result, Milly changes her name to "Willy" and begins attending
a new school as a transfer student. Milly (as Willy) initially
takes well to her new persona and gender but eventually becomes
conflicted when she begins to realize that life isn't necessarily
easier as a boy and that she had feelings for her friend Alfie
(Eric Gurry) who is equally confused about his feelings for
"Willy". By the film's end, Milly decides to become female once
more. Malcolm sells Milly a wishing stone that she is to throw at
her favorite star at 12:03 during a star shower. She turns back
into a girl again.
