Boyhood screens at town hall cinema

Town Hall Cinema presents the Oscar winning film ‘Boyhood’ this Thursday April  16th.

 

Shot intermittently over the course of a 12-year period from 2002 to 2014, ‘Boyhood’ depicts the adolescence of Mason Evans, Jr. (Ellar Coltrane) from ages six to eighteen as he grows up in Texas with divorced parents (Patricia Arquette and Ethan Hawke). The film is a moving look at childhood and growing up as an adolescent in America and is a must-see for anyone working with children in schools or in community groups.

 

AO Scott, also writing for The New York Times, called ‘Boyhood’ the best film of 2014, saying that he could not think of any film that had affected him the way Boyhood had in his 15 years as a professional film critic.

 

The film is certified 15A and screens at 8pm. Tickets at the door.
