Jonathan Jackson is Tuck Everlasting

Tuck Everlasting (2002) is a coming of age Disney movie starring Alexis Bledel (The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants), Jonathan Jackson (The Deep End of the Ocean), William Hurt (Lost in Space, The Incredible Hulk), Sissy Spacek (Blast from the Past, Carrie), Scott Bairstow (Wild America), Ben Kinsley (Gandhi, Shutter Island), Amy Irving (Traffic, Carrie), and Victor Garber (Titanic, Sleepless in Seattle).

Winnie Foster (Bledel) is a 15 year-old girl who is looking for a chance to live away from her domineering mother (Irving) and see the world. Just when she thought she would not get the chance that she so desperately wanted, she meets the handsome Jesse Tuck (Jackson). The Tuck family carries with them a secret, that; if it came out, could destroy the concept of life and death as society knows it. The Tuck family appears to have stumbled upon the "Fountain of Youth" while wondering the woods. It was later that they discovered that none of them could die. For example, Jesse falls out of a tree and lands on his neck (which should have killed him.) A horse that had drank from the same spring as the Tuck family did, was shot, and the bullets had just bounced off him. Even though the Tuck family believes that their secret is safe, there is a man tracking them. The Man in the Yellow Suit (Kingsley) heard from his grandmother's stories about a family who could not die. Tuck's grandmother heard these stories from a mental patient who ended up being Mile's (Bairstow) wife. Miles tries to convince his wife and children to drink from the well so they could all stay together, but the wife had believed that Miles was possessed by the devil and left him with his children in tow. Mae (Spacek) told Winnie that the best parts of Miles died along with his wife and children.

Meanwhile, Winnie and Jesse end up falling in love. Even Winnie was going to drink from the spring so she could stay with Jesse forever, until his father, Angus (Hurt), had a conversation with Winnie about what life was like and about death. Angus compares immortality to being a rock; never changing and stuck in time. So did Winnie choose Jesse and immortality or did she choose to live and die as a normal person? You must see the movie to find out her decision.
