Review of American Heart (1992) by Jack G — 20 Sep 2008
An independat film about a boy who wants to be closer to his dad, but his father has just come out of jail and can hardly look after himself, let alone his son.
It is moving, funny and charismatic, and theres a certain charm about it.
Although quite long and menotinous at some points, it is generally a gripping drama.
Edward Furlong plays a similar character to John Connor, an independant street kid. Jeff Bridges also delivers a fantastic performance. Although slightly melodramatic in some parts, and a little cliché, this film is really quite thought-provoking :).
