Free Willy is a 1993 children's film that Homer saw at Springfield Palace Hotel.

Plot

Willy is an orca and while he tries to be free by jumping out of his enclosure, he doesn't make it and crushes the boy who tried to help him.

History

When Homer was at the Springfield Palace Hotel, during a deadlock while on jury duty, he saw the film. He watched the directors cut and didn't like it.

In the episode Treehouse of Horror XI the film was referenced again when Lisa freed a dolphin from its basin by encouraging it to jump out. While the animal does this it hits Lisa in the face with its tail.
