Richard Linklater's "Boyhood"

By Jack Brummet


I was moved, delighted, amazed, and heartened by Richard Linklater's new movie Boyhood. It covers 12 years in a fictional family's life, and was filmed over 12 years. The cast is amazing and it tugs your heart like his movies often can. It will be a felony if this doesn't win an Oscar for best picture, Ethan Hawke, and Patricia Arquette, for the script, director, supporting actors, and more. I also always love his inobtrusive, delicate camerawork and this ensemble is stunning--Ellar Coltrane and Linklater's daughter...just wow. I really suck at reviews. Just go see it. It made my heart sing.
