-
An elegant capture of the most elusive story of all: the awkward but nevertheless intense friendship between boys.
July 23, 2013 | Full Review… -
In a slim 72 minutes, it heart-tethers us to these teenagers, paying tribute to their unique and private selves while allowing the audience to see its own reflection in them.
February 22, 2013 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review… -
The helmers find consistently invigorating camera angles and a smooth editing scheme, despite what was surely a raft of footage.
January 22, 2013 -
A charming, aimless film about the aimless. It plays like a nuanced MTV reality show (an oxymoron, perhaps, but you get the idea).
January 10, 2013 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review… -
Co-directors Jason Tippet and Elizabeth Mims show genuine affection for their subjects but, despite some evocative visuals, never zero in on an involving structure or narrative.
January 3, 2013 | Rating: 2.5/5 | Full Review… -
Directors Elizabeth Mims and Jason Tippet let their subjects meander, and instead unify their movie through tight control of tone, winding up with an elegiac portrait of teen America.
