Love, Antosha

Wow. This is a bio of a truly incredible young man. I've seen a little of his work, only bits and pieces, so I didn't think I would be as interested as I was but the story of his career and his relationship with this parents is one of a kind. It is a sentimental film, but it would be hard not to be with all the amazing things he did.

EDIT: It's been about six weeks since I saw this. I keep thinking of it every so often, of how well he was loved by those around him, and how much he poured out in everything he did. I aspire to love my child as fully as his parents loved him.

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.

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.

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

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...
