I'd really like to re-watch this sci-fi flick: a young boy is presumed dead because he fell into a river/was in a car that drove off a pier in New York. He freezes but doesn't die, and spends +/- 2,000 years staring at a statue of a girl/angel which sank to the bottom of the river. I think he falls in love with the statue?



While he's down there the human race evolves into very refined, delicate creatures. Eventually they find him, rescue him, and even manage to bring his mother back to life for 24 hours so that he can spend that time with her. I think they make a lot of replicas of him, but I can't remember why.



I thought the movie was called "The Blue Angel", but that doesn't seem to be right. "My" movie has nothing to do with Marlene Dietrich!

This is the 2001 film A.I. Artificial Intelligence.



The Blue Fairy (not Angel) is a recurrent theme in the movie.



Here is the part about being trapped underwater, from the linked Wikipedia article.




David tells Joe he saw the Blue Fairy underwater and wants to go down
to meet her. Joe is captured by the authorities using an
electromagnet. David and Teddy use the amphibicopter to go to the
Fairy, which turns out to be a statue at the now-sunken Coney Island.
The two become trapped when the Wonder Wheel falls on their vehicle.
David asks repeatedly to be turned into a real boy until the ocean
freezes and is deactivated once his power source is drained.



Two thousand years later, humans have become extinct, and Manhattan is
buried under glacial ice. The Mecha have evolved into an advanced,
intelligent, silicon-based form. They find David and Teddy, and
discover they are original Mecha that knew living humans, making them
special.



David is revived and walks to the frozen Fairy statue, which collapses
when he touches it.
