The Twilight Zone (1985)

S02E03 The Storyteller / Nightsong

In the early 1900s, a young woman begins her career as a teacher in a small, one-room schoolhouse. One of her students, Mica, has been sneaking extra books home. When the teacher questions him, she learns that he’s been reading to his sick grandfather, who astonishingly claims to be over 140 years old! Meanwhile, a young DJ on the night shift at a radio station stumbles upon an album by her long-lost boyfriend, who vanished five years earlier. When he unexpectedly returns, she finds herself caught off guard and filled with mixed emotions.
