so close to perfect. had to dock half a star for the “humpty dumpy” line
the first half captures the relentless giddiness and fantastic boredom of early childhood better than any film i can recall. the focus gradually shifts to the adults to reveal a candid picture of poverty, about taking care of one another, about people living hand to mouth on the margins in plain sight. a work of tremendous empathy that raises uncomfortable questions about a social safety net with the power to tear families apart but not to keep them together. also, willem defoe
ok hangout movie. fails to answer the central question, “why does this movie exist when he already made dazed and confused?”
