The Bumblebee Flies Anyway is a 1999 drama film starring Elijah Wood and directed by Martin Duffy.

In his explorations, both inside his shattered memories and through the physical rooms of the hospital, Barney starts to realize that there was no car crash.

Torn between his hope for a cure and his desire to continue his budding relationship with Cassie, Barney is forced to choose whether to go through the amnesia procedure again or remain with the memories and knowledge he has thus far acquired.

Lisa Nesselson of Variety praised the acting and called it "A meticulously made film that raises haunting questions about personal identity and the role of mind over matter in treating serious illness.

"[1] TV Guide gave a more mixed review, commenting the film cannot decide if it is "a lighthearted teen coming-of-age story, or an eerie science-fiction nightmare about wayward medical ethics".
