Review: Hellion (2014)

Painful. Heartbreaking. Aaron Paul stars as the floundering widowed dad of two young boys. Juliette Lewis plays a worried aunt. The two child actors are incredible, but particularly Josh Wiggins, the lead. He’s got a heavy burden with the role, a lot to do, a lot of complexity. He is amazing. Tough stuff, Hellion. It started as a short, and was developed with the help of the Sundance Film Institute. Kat Candler wrote/directed. Highly recommended.

My review of Hellion is up at Rogerebert.com.
