Numa sala perto de mim #290

Boyhood (2014) is a film like no other. With no particular story or remarkable episode to tell, it accompanies the life of a 6 year old boy until he turns 18 in a sequence of 12 episodes roughly a year apart from each other. The result is 165 minutes of somebody's childhood years with good and bad moments not necessarily worthy of cameras but overall worth of note, as the forming years of any ordinary person should be. 

The project took twelve years in the making (how many movies were done in those 12 years?) and required massive tracking of the individuals playing each of the characters, who met every year to shoot some scenes. Remarkable. Even if it doesn't win the oscar for best picture, Boyhood is one of a kind and already part of movie history.
