Boy A

BOY A (2007) - Sept. 14, 2007 (Second Viewing)
Yep, this is definitely my favourite movie of the festival so far, and I really doubt that anything I see tomorrow will be able to top it. It's just so well made, and well directed, and well written, and well acted. Peter Mullan is really good, but it's Andrew Garfield who really knocks it out of the park in the main role. It's a really impressive performance, and I think we'll certainly be seeing more of him in the future. There's just so many things I really like about this movie, from the strong performances to the way it unfolds to the powerful ending. ****
