Twelve and Holding / USA / 2006

A devastating, heartbreaking look at the lives of pubescent children from Michael Cuesta, the director of L.I.E., who’s quickly becoming a personal favorite of mine. His seemingly effortless guidance of his young actors is a rarity in Hollywood today, and all three principle actors—Conor Donovan, Jesse Camacho, and especially Zoe Weizenbaum—are superb. (The latter’s rendition of “I’m Burning for You” is especially soul-wrenching.) An admirable second film, though Cuesta seems to be encroaching somewhat on Larry Clark territory.
