Q&A with Richard Linklater and the Cast
Acclaimed by Rolling Stone as “a new American classic,” Boyhood chronicles one boy’s epic journey to adulthood. Writer/director Richard Linklater follows the same actors over 12 years to tell a coming-of-age story like none other in film history. Starring Emmy winner Patricia Arquette, Ethan Hawke, and newcomer Ellar Coltrane, Boyhood is a groundbreaking experience that critics are hailing as “entertaining, entrancing, one-of-a-kind storytelling,” “profoundly moving” and “a masterpiece.”
