This new indie film really impressed me - a funny and ultimately moving coming of age story set in a New England beach town - starring newcomer Liam James and a great supporting cast including Steve Carrell , Toni Collette, Allison Janney, Maya Rudolph, Anna Sophia Robb and best of all- Sam Rockwell. I guess I missed publicity when this came out but when I saw it the other night, I was alone in the theater - and it is one of the best movies I have seen this year.
Yes, I like it a hell of a lot. This was my second time seeing it, and it holds up splendidly. Rockwell is the ultimate cool buddy/father figure we all want. John Bailey scores again as d.p. I hope Rash and Faxon make a follow-up someday.
