Filmed over 12 years,
Richard Linklater’s
Boyhoood
is a groundbreaking story of growing up as seen through the eyes of a
child named Mason (a breakthrough performance by Ellar Coltrane), who
literally grows up on screen before our eyes. Starring
Ethan Hawke and Patricia Arquette
as Mason’s parents and newcomer Lorelei Linklater as his sister Samantha,
Boyhood
charts the rocky terrain of childhood like no other film has before. Snapshots of adolescence from road trips and family
dinners to birthdays and graduations and all the moments in between become transcendent.
Boyhood
is both a nostalgic time capsule of the recent past and an ode to growing up and parenting.
