Movie Review - The Place Beyond the Pines
This movie is interesting because of its non-traditional structure. It interconnects the story of two flawed men, and examines how their actions affect their sons.
Ryan Gosling gives a sparse, electric performance. It's so good, in fact, that I almost wish the story had stayed focused on Luke. But this story, like life, moves forward, and deliciously reveals the results of two fathers' best intentions.
Both men have secrets and both suffer for them, setting up their sons' lives and journeys.
