I love what Eller Coltrane says here. "Life itself without anything explosive or tragic, must be more exciting then we let on."
Can't agree more.
If you call "Boyhood" a gimmick, it means you are COMPLETELY missing the point of this film.
Eller's speech brings a lump to my throat. Beautifully said.
Boyhood was such a marvelous film, if Birdman beats it for Best Picture at the Oscars I'll be devastated
Agreed, I can see a director/picture split happening
I don't think i could handle that. Any other year I'd love AGI to win for Birdman because its a directorial masterpiece, but Linklater's efforts must not be denied
Looking more likely that it's AGI's year
He's got the Director's Guild yes, and thats the biggest, but Linklater has every other director award so far. It'll be very close - both men have equal but slightly different claims to the same sort of story that won Cuaron the Oscar last year.
Luke McGowan meh, the 12 years trick was awesome... apart from that, it was an average movie at best. Yes, i get the "life lessons", which we have seen in countless movies before, but still, a movie that only stands out from one trick, isn't that good... Birdman, without the one shot style, would have been oscar material anyways, boyhood without the 12 year old trick...well....Yes, would be a forgettable movie
It took 12 years to them to win the Critics Choice.
It took 12 years to them to win the BAFTA.
It took 12 years to them to lose the Oscar.
That year had movies with equal chances to win, like Boyhood, Whiplash, The Theory of Everything.
I supported Boyhood too, but it was a duel of giants.
Should have won the Oscars
Yes I agree
Boyhood is far better than 12 Years a slave
Very well done acceptance speech, i enjoyed it, particularly like the 'life itself without anything explosive or tragic must be more exciting than we let on'.
What a moving speech
Deserved an Oscar too
Ellar gets to talk.FINALLY! He's adorable(?)
2:22 lad behind KST, you know you're on live telly,right?! LOL
Should've won the Oscars
I’m mexican and I think they deserve the Oscar
much deserved!!
WTG Ellar! That was an awesome speech, exactly what your fans would expect you to say. I hope your career continues to be successful, and allows you to explore all of your creative ideas and avenues, not just in movies, but whatever makes you happy.
*I WANNA TALK ABOUT HOW AWSOME BOYHOOD IS, IT TOOK TWELVE YEARS TO MAKE, I FUCKING LOVE BOYHOOD, DID I MENTION IT TOOK 12 YEARS TO MAKE?*
RLM
Well said, Ellar. This was an amazing movie.
Oh thank you EE BAFTA!!!!
Tom Cruise = LEGEND
i loved the movie a lot
This is way better than the rigged Oscars
Well done xx
I feel a bit gutted, because when the story broke about Linklater making this film that took 12 years to film, i think i first heard about it maybe 6 years ago.
I knew, from just hearing that as a unique selling point, that its almost never been done before, aside from Truffaut doing it. That this could easily be Linklater's chance for an Oscar. And i would put him at the moment right at the front of the pack, along with the best film. That i should have placed a bet on it winning one of these top 3 awards.
I would be EXTREMELY surprised if it didn't win best pic, or best director.. Or both even.
And Patricia Arquette has the best supporting actress Oscar in the bag i would say.
Michael Apted did it with his docu-drama film series "Up", where he followed the same family every 7 years over decades. Linklater calls "Up" one of his inspirations for this film.

But that was really a documentary. A bit like "Child of Our Time" by Robert Winston.
But i don't doubt it was an inspiration but its not quite the same as a narrative story.
Sure, but if you watch Up, you will find that Apted maintained a narrative and kept all the characters in play quite brilliantly. It is not a dry documentary, but a series of evocative films that has you completely invested in the characters.

It seems like Linklater's greatest challenge was maintaining the emotional continuity and consistency of the characters over 12 years. And that's not as hard to do as is being imagined. Ask any director of a film delayed over 5-6 years, and they will tell you that emotional continuity is the first thing they take care of. I think Boyhood's greatness lies not in this 12 year idea but in the little moments captured so exquisitely by RL. Patricia Arquette's "I thought there would be more" scene has haunted me since September when I first watched the film.

I totally agree.
In describing the film "well, its filmed over 12 years", makes that part of the film sound so much like a gimmick. But the film plays it so beautifully.
And though its not super duper plot heavy, it meanders and sways. But in a way that it didn't seem pretentious to me.
Well deserved! I thought someone had belched at 1:19 !!
Wonder if this will be repeated with “Merrily we Roll Along”.
Why wasn't the director there?
GIVE BIRDMAN A CHANCE
Birdman did well at the Directors Guild Awards today!
How can they ignore ethan hawke like THAt!
It took 12 years to make? So what?
TOM CRUISE!
What a disgrace... like cool, taking 12 years but boring story, boring shots. A few references to aging technologies over the past 12 years shouldn't be praised so much
I have to agree. Boyhood has some of the greatest dedication in film history but the story and characters arent anything special although still touching. I expect Best Director will go to Inarritu and Best Picture to Boyhood
I think it either works on a person or it doesn't work on a person (which is different than saying the obnoxiously pretentious "you just didn't get it" comment). It comes down to, as Coltrane so eloquently puts it, vulnerability. If it makes you feel as vulnerable as the characters you are watching as their lives unfold, then it the movie does have a profoundly moving effect on you. For me that was exactly what happened. There were a few moments where it got tedious, maybe repetitive, but the craftsmanship was always there, and the story really is as simple as the title. I loved it, and think it does deserve every accolade it's getting. If you didn't enjoy it, that's perfectly fine. I would suggest giving it another chance in a few years.
You totally missed the entire point Ellar was trying to make in his speech. Life is interesting without explosions and car chases. You are so jaded.
He doesn't even mean explosions and car chases. He means that life can be worth it without anything extreme or dramatic. Or without necessarily having over the top achievements
No one cares about the baftas anyway, the SAGS are far more relevant as far as which films will have more chances at the oscars and Birdman took the big prize, I don't get this boyhood cliche thing about a coming of age white middle class american boy, sounds awful boring.
Lol what a joke
Everyone is loosing their minds over boyhood just because of the way it was filmed. That doesnt make up for it being about something rather mundane. One or two strong performances dont make it a great movie.
Yeah... its so much more than that. Also everyone is loosing their minds about the way Birdman was filmed too.
landondonovanify boyhood covers nothing that hasn't been done in a ton of books tv shows etc. While I think it was better than boyhood I'm not a fan of Birdman either.
But not in film and this is a film. And it's not great because it was filmed over 12 years, that's just the great concept for it's greatness.
landondonovanify Uhm ok then
Youll understand one day
All the film awards are so full of shit, they go straight for Bait movies with this clearly only being made to get awards appealing strictly to no one and boring us all to death with terrible characters, did he mention it took 12 YEARS TO MAKE?
@landondonavonify No, that's the only thing Boyhood does.
bait movies? . yes they make this movie 14 years ago just to get awards right.when they can easily make film about a British genius or sth like that...
A boring episode of a weekly melodramatic TV series. Just awful. It feels like it's 19 hrs long.
well its not
BIRDMAN WAS ROBBED.
Alfonso Villafuerte no, it wasn't
