Richard Linklater’s Curious Case of Boyhood
Originally titled Growing Up, Richard Linklater’s ambitious project that’s been filming, quietly, each year for the past decade, will finally be shown to the public at this year’s Sundance Film Festival. It’s one of those movies that has many fans eager to see what comes of this latest venture from the man who gave us the Before… series. We’re told it’s shot in documentary style, and it’s a drama about a couple, played by Ethan Hawke and Patricia Arquette, who are raising a young boy – only we get to see the characters really age, unaided by Benjamin-Button theatrics. Ellar Salmon, pictured above, plays the boy who ages from 6 to 18 in the film. This one goes into the Curious Must-See file. Sundance kicks off this Thursday, and I’ll be there reporting on the new films that are being screened there.

This really answered my problem, thank you!
The next time I read a blog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this one. I mean, I know it was my choice to read, but I actually thought youd have something interesting to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about something that you could fix if you werent too busy looking for attention.
Hello! I just would like to give a huge thumbs up for the great info you have here on this post. I will be coming back to your blog for more soon.
