When Boyhood was about to be released, everyone was talking about it. Because of the hype some people were quite disappointed. I was not one of them. I thought it was great! It was so well done, almost like watching a real life.
The father, especially, grew on me. Even though I hated him in the very beginning, he had a great storyline and turned out to be a decent guy. His storyline was also the only one that had a proper ending, I think. Most of the others are kind of left to explore their own path in life. Which is good, but I wouldn't have minded an even longer movie.
I need to check this out, the previews were fascinating!
ReplyDeleteI loved it too, it was definitely like watching the story unfold in real life, crazy bold ambitious move to use the same actors but I think it definitely paid off :)
ReplyDeleteOooh wow I hadn't even realised this was made! I've ALWAYS wanted someoe to make a movie based on a kid where he grows up but in exactly in this way, where they use the same actor and take years to make it. i can't believe someone actually doen it! I'm going to ahve to watch it
