Too many questions are ultimately left unanswered, but it's a real kick ...
Everything about The Wolfpack is extraordinary, beginning with the subjects of Crystal Moselle's mesmerizing documentary.
The boys are bright and funny, and when they do go out together - shades on, long hair flowing down rail-thin bodies - they look like a somewhat awkward but cool rock band you'd like to get to know. Moselle's documentary is the next best thing.
Whether they are dancing exuberantly to the cheesy 1980s pop hit Tarzan Boy or celebrating Halloween in their tiny living room, these kids figured out how to not only survive, but thrive. Sometimes, with a little luck and a lot of love, joy finds a way.
It all adds up to a story of the human spirit's ability to survive and even thrive despite twisted circumstance.
It's stunning (and amazingly well done) and hard to believe. Yet it's all true, as far as we know.
The story is as intriguing as it is unbelievable, as a paranoid immigrant, his pliant wife and their seven children live in self-imposed confinement, in the middle of New York City.
Equally disturbing, funny and heart-warming, there's no movie quite like The Wolfpack out there. It has to be seen to be believed.
How weird and riveting and creepily fantastic a new documentary about an eccentric and lavishly haired family living in New York is.
The Wolfpack works best when the subjects are being let out into the world to experience things for the first time, displaying how their massive knowledge of cinema has drilled unbelievable visions of the outside world into their heads
The result is a multi-layered narrative, slightly tricky and elusive in form, but with subjects who are refreshingly, touchingly frank.
It's cute, funny, and sad.
A fascinating documentary about a family in New York whose children have always lived in isolation, with no contact with the outside world. Their only outlet is through movies and this documentary explores how the world treats them once they venture outside and how they see the world. Creepy and compelling.
