One of the greatest children's films of all time, this much-loved (mostly dialogue-free) French movie is about a young boy and his toy...

The Red Balloon is a silent film but there is some talking sometimes. But I kind of wish it was shorter so younger children can watch it too and experience it.The Red Balloon is about a young boy who does not have any friends until it finds the Red balloon it follows the boy and brings him joy. But I think the balloon prefers to fly than getting carried.Unfortunately the amazing balloon was to everybody's liking.So everybody tried to get it but luckily the boy out foxed them.The rest is basically a spoiler so if you want to know the rest I suggest you watch it your self!
