Your favorite summer movie

Richard Linklater's Boyhood, with Ellar Coltrane, Patricia Arquette, and Ethan Hawke.

Best flick I've seen this summer, the music was way over my head though. Moving without the schmaltz.

I have heard of this and want to see it. However, I am doubly intrigued if one of our very sophisticated members claims that a movie score was "way over [his] head." That'll be the day, j.

It's rock, which I like a lot but this stuff is way past my prime. I've been told the score is pure nostalgia for those who grew up back then.

Anyway I can't shake off this movie, even though it is about nothing but ordinary daily life in a dysfunctional family. Truffaut did something like this when he followed Jean-Pierre Léaud's coming of age on camera but that was over several discrete films. Great idea for a movie, film the story over 1/2 a generation and let the characters age on screen. The boy Ellar Coltrane is sensational--hopefully he will continue acting.
