Good story, Not enough for a whole film
This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
