Cloak & Dagger

Davey Osborne has a powerful imagination and everyone in his life (his father, his friends, the police) thinks he needs to grow up a little bit. So, when a real-life spy scenario falls in his lap, it’s not long before Davey realizes that he’s on his own. Cloak & Dagger is a Hitchcockian spy adventure for kids that has a dark tone that could only have come out of the 1980s. Henry Thomas stars as Davey and Dabney Coleman plays a dual role as both super spy Jack Flack and Davey’s struggling father. At times sweet, suspenseful and violent, Cloak & Dagger is a forgotten gem.
