Who's seen Boyhood?

[LowSlungCarbing]

I think I want to, but I want to know how much it will make me cry. (Mother of boys, quite emotional even on a good day.) I have my eye make-up to consider

Genius film. Just perfect.

Loved it. I couldn't stop thinking about it afterwards, maybe because I have a son.

I was underwhelmed with it as well. Kept waiting for the plot to pick up.

the exquisite ordinariness of the film that was outstanding
Any Fucker you said it perfectly.

I loved it and I cried but it's not a crying the whole way through sort of film.

I'm not going anywhere near it. I just know the vivid reminder of the passage of time will haunt me. I gave tiny children. Each day is racing away - I don't want to imagine them all grown up!!

I think it was that the boy,even at a young age, was on his own to learn and grow up. However involved you are as a mother they are at the mercy of the rest of the world. And yes it goes bloody fast.

I watched it on my own when I was meant to be studying, when dh asked me how it was I couldn't describe it. I told him - nothing much happened, not like in normal films, but yet it was brilliant.
Yy to the ordinariness, it was just, life.
I love Patricia Arquette in anything, she's fab. Loved recognising her haircuts from the 'Medium' years.

Yeah, loved it! Loved the whole idea of shooting it over 12 or however many years.

Hah, yes the 'Medium' hair!
I loved it, very moving and profound in the ordinariness. Not a mother myself but I looked after my sisters son in his teenage years after she died. Very easy to identify with the whole thing, story, people, shit happens, people move on. . Great movie. You might cry but really should see it.

Oh fgs I want to watch it again. Getting choked up here!
