Event
Daddy Long Legs - Seattle Premiere
(Benny Safdie, Josh Safdie, USA, 2009, 35mm, 98 min)
Joshua and Benny Safdie's latest collaboration is a realistic fairytale about a divorced dad who never gets enough time with his boys. Capturing the magic of parenthood and invoking memories of their own inventive father who made their childhood distinctive, the brothers have created Lenny (played perfectly by actor Ronald Bronstein), who struggles with being a good parent to his two boys. Divorced and alone, he cherishes the days with his kids and tries hard to make the most of time with them. When the going gets tough, Lenny uses unusual, unconventional, perhaps even hazardous, techniques to protect his children from the world. Daddy Long Legs is an ode to excuses and responsibilities, to growing up and staying young-at-heart, to fatherhood and childhood and to making time last forever.
