  • @daisy-cv9zc

  • @cigarman4u
    Timothée nailed his role in this movie, it brought back to many memories of the struggles I had with my own son. The conversations, the worrying, the pain, the helplessness of battling addiction. Unfortunately I lost my son at 20, so I wasn't lucky enough to see my son win his battle. I would have liked to see the movie to go just I bit farther, just to give HOPE that kids can win over this terrible disease of addiction. Sorry you didn't get nominated for an Oscar Timothee, but you are an absolute talent to be recognized!

    This film is so overwhelmingly beautiful and moving. I cannot get enough

    I saw "Beautiful Boy" in its limited theatrical release. I had no idea what I was getting myself into. There was a small audience on a Saturday afternoon of 24 people. Kudos to the screenwriter and director for making the story/film arc identical to the ups and downs of being addicted to drugs and alcohol with the final crash spiraling slowly downwards that I was left emotionally drained and so were many of the members of the audience. ( In front of me sat a guy 21/22 years old who sat with his girlfriend. During the final scene, he slowly leaned over and put his head on her shoulder. She put one arm around him and with her free hand started slowly petting his head and whispered in his ear so that I could hear "After this movie do you need to call your brother?" At that point he wept as he tried to continue to watch the movie). There were audible sobbings. Someone in the back was softly crying out "No No No. Don't do this." The last time I cried this much was when I said goodbye to my father knowing he was going to die only 12 hours later. It was great to see Maura Tierney. I've missed not seeing her since her role as Abby in "ER." The cinematographer Ruben Impens did an incredible job of keeping the frame as closely intimate as possible without intrusion. The final bathroom scene I don't think could have been shot any other way. I'm always impressed by actors who start out in comedy and dare themselves to take a shot at drama. Steve Carell, who made me laugh to tears in "The Office" gave a stunning performance that blew me away. He should've been given an Oscar nod as Best Supporting Actor. If Timothee Chalamet became a star overnight with "Call Me By Your Name" then with "Beautiful Boy" he will be a force to be reckoned with. If he keeps doing roles this challenging then he can forget about shooting for the stars. He might as well aim for galaxies far beyond our own. There is no stopping him. He should've been given an Oscar nod for Best Actor. Writer, director, cinematographer and editor all should have been recognized with Oscar nominations. Shame on the Academy for Motion Picture Arts and Sciences for ignoring what is an important film in this day and age where drug overdose is now the second most cause of death with our young generation. Instead they gave an Oscar nod in the Best Picture Category for a comic book film. As a lover of great films, that was a new low for AMPAS to sink to. ATTENTION AMAZON: This film should be put out on DVD. People can still buy and stream but this is an all important movie not just for anyone but for everyone to see and put on DVD collectors shelves along with many classic films. Please do this and thank you for making this film possible.

    this movie is so important!!!!! we can’t demonize addicts!!! they’re not inherently bad people, but usually people who feel like the only way out of their situation is substance abuse. they need that comfort because they’re people. not villains.
  • Both Steve and Timmy were robbed awards for this performance.
  • @kayjay12341
    Steve Carrell is amazing in this film too. Everyone talking about Timothee, which is deserved, but they both put on stellar performances
  • This film definitely made me go through emotions. It was beautiful. True to the name.
  • Timothée has blown me away in this film. So many emotions and tears. He is a true gift to us, the viewers. This story should be shown in all the schools to teach the kids what addiction can do to you and the people who love you. I have 3 daughters and I am terrified of any kind of addiction.
  • @Bronnybronny
    Timothee’s performance made me cry! Steve was awesome, like UNREAL. This duo was insane! Timmy seriously blew me AWAY in this film.
  • @ntf9438
    everything timothee does is always right there on the surface which is so beautiful.
  • This movie made me cry multiple times bc my family lived through this, the movie was on point. Everyone gets hurt and worried it is crazyy. I never understood why brother went through that path, my parents are good parents but sometimes there is no reason. It got to a point where i didn't care about my brother anymore he had hurt the family multiple times, but mom was constantly anxious and worried about him. It was coool watching this film and seen the parent perspective, I understood my mom more. My brother has been sober for year and half. My brother has found God and literally took a 360 change. Thank for the movie.
  • @sikeoable
    i’m sorry but this is timothée’s BEST performance in my opinion. having a history of drugs in my family and watching this it was pretty much spot on. i couldn’t stop crying and just thinking about this experience. this movie is so moving and even if you are just thinking about watching this i say go for it. this seems extreme but it really is the BEST movie i have ever seen.
  • I’m in bits watching this movie, never in my life has a story/performance made me so emotionally broken.
  • @fembot521
    I read Tweak first, then a few years later Nics second book and then Beautiful Boy. These books were amazing and even though I have never experienced addiction and my children are too young I think this movie is about loving people unconditionally.
  • I saw this movie 2 times, the first time it was after slipping and scoring some hydromorph from a crack house, the second time was after checking into rehab. Sometimes it was like watching me and my dad interact. Im currently 6 months clean and just hoping that I won’t go back to the bottom.
  • @cgm2086
    carrell and chalumet should both have been nominated. such a beautiful heartfelt story, so relevant for today. haven't seen all the noms but this was definitely certainly more emotionally involving and touching and actors displayed more range than green book.
  • I can’t believe how much I’ve cried while watching this movie . I’m in awe in how well Steve and Timotheé captured this reality ... actually every single person who was part of this film . It’s not an easy story to tell . It’s not always that you finish a movie and you feel like it’s been 2 hours of your life you know you’ll never forget . I will never forget . So grateful. So so grateful .
