Deconstruction of Boyhood




Boyhood is a 2014 American independent coming-of-age drama film, written and directed by Richard Linklater, and starring Patricia Arquette, Ellar Coltrane, Lorelei Linklater, and Ethan Hawke. Shot intermittently from 2002 to 2013, Boyhood depicts the childhood and adolescence of Mason Evans, Jr. (Coltrane) from ages six to eighteen as he grows up in Texas with divorced parents. 

Boyhood is produced by IFC Ptroductions and distributed by IFC Films and Universal Pictures. IFC Films is a production company that distributes similar films in our genre which is why we have taken inspiration from Boyhood. 

Boyhood is a social realism film and covers issues such as divorce, domestic abuse, alcohol, drugs, school/graduation and relationships.
