Synopsis When 16-year-old Finn is caught buying cocaine for his junkie but well intentioned mother Liz, his plans of spending the summer away from NYC with his anthropologist father studying the Ishkanani in the jungle are abruptly changed. In an attempt to get both of their lives back on track, Liz moves the two of them out to a cottage on the country estate of her sugar daddy, Mr. Osborne. Finn immediately makes his way into the 'tribe' of wealthy country clubbers that inhabit his new home. Soon Finn is dating Mr. Osborne's granddaughter Maya and has found a best friend in her brother Bryce. Finn adjusts quickly to their life of fancy clothes, cars, horses, sex and drugs. Liz begins attending AA meetings and begins to establish herself as a loving mother working to correct her mistakes and win back Finn's love and trust. Unfortunately things begin to spiral out of control, and he begins to see that the wealth and friendships bestowed upon him come at a price.
Based on a novel written by Dirk Wittenborn, this hilarious quirky film is quite entertaining. With a superb cast, standouts include Anton Yelchin the main protagonist, Kristen Stewart as the rich “girlfriend” and Donald Sutherland as the eccentric millionaire. The main reason I checked the film out in the first place was Stewart, I happen to think she is one of the best if not the best teen actress out there at the moment.
The film received quite a few scathing reviews and was not released till the end of November 07, despite being filmed in 2005. Though that doesn’t diminish the film in my eyes, it was an enjoyable film for those that like something a little different.
It’s not an action movie so if you wanna see some shooting and some boobs you will be disappointed.
Well its been super long since my last post, ive been crazy busy. And its been forever since ive done a favourite two songs of the week post, so here we go!!
* Electric Feel - MGMT off the album 'Oracular Spectacular
Great review, But i disagree, everyone i know that has seen Southland Tales hated it, i dont know what it is about the film i just love it.
Though i do agree with you on ....."Kelly is like a kid in a candy store, completely overwhelmed an unable to decide "oh heck lets put it ALL in a blender and call it a tapestry with an ensemble cast" <<<THAT.
He lost whatever he was trying to do halfway through the film..
Journeywoman, I Totally agree, this movie was so crappy. I will pretty much give anything with Eliza a go. but i was beyond bored in this flick. the only saving grace for me was the song 'Lightening Rod' by Guster when they were all doin the ditty..
Hey John Doe, I didnt manage to get out to Supanova(work) but my brother alex s(cinemadime) went and loved it.
Now to name drop, My dad owns his own limousine company, he drives quite a few celebs around, and for the second year in a row he manged to snare the supanova gig and for next year to. So he drove all the crew there and around. He didnt know who Jewel Staite was he simply referred to her as the nice canadian, he said she was lovely.
I was meant to get an autograph from Jared but my dad refeuses to ask becasue its unprofessional.
so thats my claim to fame.
Great Post John!!
I am quite interested to see this, I am not a fan of sienna miller, but I am glad Lindsay Lohan either dropped out of the film or was dropped out of it, that would have been quite scary.
Im Italian, love soccer, and have to admit i laughed gleefully when i heard italy lost 3-0 against Netherlands. I guess im still resentful over that whole Fabio Grosso diving thing....
Im really hoping Portugal will snag it this year it was quite sad when they lost last Euro's.
I agree def agree that he is under rated, I also play the guitar and i absolutely have no co-ordination as far as playing and singing, I play the guitar properly i forget what im singing, i sing i forget what im doing with my hands..
