The Place Beyond the Pines (2012)
The Place Beyond the Pines
Watched this movie the other day and it was just amazing. The story and the story-telling; the movie really cares about its characters. The story is a kind of anthology design that is built around Ryan Gosling's character and how his life comes to affect the lives of others. The character itself I found to be one of the greatest written characters of the last twenty years: you really become attached to his story. The movie also focuses on following Bradley Cooper's character after an encounter with Gosling's character. I think he did amazing job capturing the guilt his character felt and you could sense how that guilt was present throughout the movie. Then there is Dane DeHaan's character, which was superbly executed in story and in performance. Strong support came from Eva Mendes and Ben Mendelsohn in supporting roles.
Something in this film truly answers the reasons why I watch movies. I can't praise enough the cast, the directing and the story. It enters with a high note to my all time favorite films.
