An extraordinary film by Richard Linklater filmed over a 12 year! period. Masterful performances by the growing boy, Ellar Coltrane, and his divorced parents, Ethan Hawke and Patricia Arquette. A long movie, nearly 3 hours, that never stalls, with scenes edited in a way that make you wonder, why the cut away?, but quickly make sense in the ongoing story. These parents evolve into thoughtful, mature and loving people, with a Linklater script that continues to surprise, but then fits in harmoniously with the actors and the music. A truly amazing film. Do not miss this one.
P.S. Look for the next post on samoblog about Calvary. Oh my god!
