Film Review: “Boyhood” (USA 2014) “Everybody Wants Some” (USA 2016), Directed by Richard Linklater
In this podcast, we talk about the coming-of-age films “Boyhood” and “Everybody Wants Some!!” by American director Richard Linklater.
We describe "Boyhood" as a unique coming-of-age film shot over twelve years that follows a boy's life through everyday moments and family changes. It highlights Linklater's ability to capture the authenticity of relationships and growth over time.
We then connect "Everybody Wants Some!!" to the end of "Boyhood", viewing it as a spiritual successor that portrays the carefree lifestyle of college baseball players in the 1980s.
We praise Linklater's skill in depicting friendships and the joys of youth in both films.
