The Youth in Us

Though I do like the direction, scenery, and look of this film, I can't praise the screenplay. The dialogs and interaction between the two characters was way too forced. It doesn't fit the characters properly.

"The deer on the ground seemed unable to move as it had been paralyzed."

Responses to each other's comments were way too quick. Lot's of mumbling.

It's tough to comment on the acting of the two kids. There was no dialogs between them.

What I really did like was the scene in the forest. Very surreal.

I do look forward to another Joshua Leonard film. Just as long as he gets a different writer for it.

Overall, I would have preferred a more natural feel to this movie.
