Review of Beautiful Boy (2018) by Alissa Wilkinson for Vox — 09 Oct 2018
Beautiful Boy is a beautifully made and complex rendering of a father and son’s relationship that ends with too little hope to fit into people’s “inspirational movie” box. But at its best, it’s a strong rendering of both that horror and the frayed rays of hope that sometimes break through.
It’s not easy to watch, but it is, in its own way, still beautiful.
