少年时代

本片讲述一个男孩从6岁到18岁的成长历程，导演理查德·林克莱特花了12年时间来完成这部作品。它仔细描画了孩子的成长过程，及其父母亲各个方面的变化，可以让观众细致入微地体会岁月流逝的痕迹。为了不打扰主演艾拉·萨尔蒙的正常生活，拍摄均在他暑假期间的简短时间内完成。Filmed over 12 years with the same cast, Richard Linklater's BOYHOOD is a groundbreaking story of growing up as seen through the eyes of a child named Mason (a breakthrough performance by Ellar Coltrane), who literally grows up on screen before our eyes. Starring Ethan Hawke and Patricia Arquette as Mason's parents and newcomer Lorelei Linklater as his sister Samantha, BOYHOOD charts the rocky terrain of childhood like no other film has before. Snapshots of adolescence from road trips and family dinners to birthdays and graduations and all the moments in between become transcendent, set to a soundtrack spanning the years from Coldplay's Yellow to Arcade Fire's Deep Blue. BOYHOOD is both a nostalgic time capsule of the recent past and an ode to growing up and parenting.
