Love, Antosha

Such a heartfelt, heartbreaking documentary. Through all the family and friends we get to see what most of us already knew. The guy was a fantastic actor and an even greater person. Lost too soon.

It's a fairly solid memorial documentary, but these kinds of films do always make me hope some of these people said these nice things to the subject while they were still alive.

There's also a concern of coming across like insensitive by not loving this but it is a little by-the-numbers, whilst presenting a mostly compelling and convincing statement that Yelchin himself was a person who was anything but by-the-numbers.

The old footage was kind of effective, but a little one-note. I see it as a bit of a crux when it comes to providing visuals in recent documentaries, and I think I'm getting a little tired of it...

Anton Yelchin didn't let his congenital disorder define his short life! Being an intelligent and curious person from his childhood Anton grew up seeking knowledge and experience. I'm sure his life was more fulfilling at 27 than most lives are at 77.

I found this film a bit heavy on the sentimental side and not enough on his life experience. But altogether we are given a peek into a person who wanted to live and brighten the lives of others without bringing his own problems to the surface.

Give it a look!

Love, Antosha paints a tender and eventually heartbreaking portrait of a person dedicated to film (including reviews of the vast array of films he watched), acting, family, friends, art, the steady pursuit of learning, life. The real testament is how many individuals will once again return that favor of his dedication.

Beautiful but sad documentary of the life of Anton Yelchin. I love the story of this great actor whose life was cut short by a freak accident
