After Elizabeth (Phoebe Cates) leaves her cheating husband, she moves back into her childhood home with her bossy mom. But instead of moving forward and getting on with her life, Elizabeth takes a huge step back, reliving old memories and resuscitating her imaginary friend, Fred, who lives in a box where he was stored. After 21 years, he’s got tons of tricks up his sleeve, and he’s about to shake Elizabeth out of her staid existence.—netflix
