The actors were amazing, so the director HAS to be too. I would not put down the director for a few moments that don't please some folks. I liked the couple very slight "flaws", These gave whole film a wonderful surreal/Doc. atmosphere. The transformation from the teen ager into a solid young man was perfection. Excellent acting. Both actors completely believable.
I look forward to seeing the next film this whole brilliantly creative group comes up with.
