OK today's film selection is called "Mysterious Skin," starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt. He's one of my favourite actors because he makes good choices and (I think) looks at his career as a long term exploration of character and development of his craft. Even when he does a blockbuster, it's "Inception"
So, "Mysterious Skin" is a really good film about coming of age in a small town in the American South where nothing ever really happens - on the surface. Underneath the still landscape though, the characters have to make sense of scars they've had since they were little kids. I don't want to summarise it too much because that would basically give everything away. Just look at the preview I guess. :o)]
