The Young Unknowns

The Young Unknowns is a movie that: from the moment you become engaged in the characters; you're not quite sure how to take it all in. At no point throughout the entire film are you introduced to a likable character. For one reason or another, the moment you find a bit of sympathy for one of them, the next you're cursing them under your breath.

It's a "day in the life" sort of film and that's exactly what it is. It never justifies itself, it never blatantly follows any set "rules" of story progression; it doesn't have to. It literally feels like your a fly on the wall, not so much viewing a movie but peering into someones really f******* bad day.

Acting is good, cinematography is gorgeous, and it's got that 90's feel of drugs and despair. It's a good film, not along the lines of great, but it's good.

Similar to Igby and DAngerous lives of altar boys, this film covers the milieu of rich, bored, unloved kids who screw up. Beautifully shot, well acted especially Devon Gummersall and Leslie Bibb.

Good, solid indie film.
