But the results are unpredictable\, as one moment braids into the next\, entwining into a deeply personal experience of the incidents that shape us as we grow up and the ever-changing nature of our lives.\n As the story begins\, dreamy-eyed primary schooler Mason faces upheaval: his devoted\, struggling\, single mother Olivia (Patricia Arquette) has decided to move him and older sister Samantha (Lorelei Linklater) to Houston – just as their long absent father Mason Sr. (Ethan Hawke) returns from Alaska to re-enter their world. Thus begins life’s non-stop flux. Yet through a tide of parents and stepparents\, girls\, teachers and bosses\, dangers\, yearnings and creative passions\, Mason emerges to head down his own road. \n\n Written and directed by Richard Linklater and produced by Linklater\, Jonathan Sehring\, John Sloss and Cathleen Sutherland. Cinematography by Lee Daniel and Shane F Kelly\, Edited by Sandra Adair with Production Design by Rodney Becker and Gay Studebaker.  \n  URL:https://vesglobal.org/event/screening-boyhood-new-zealand/ CATEGORIES:Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://vesglobal.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/boyhood_film.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20141016T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20141016T210000 DTSTAMP:20260410T013038 CREATED:20140930T232929Z LAST-MODIFIED:20140930T232929Z UID:10006790-1413486000-1413493200@vesglobal.org SUMMARY:Toronto Speaker Series - Phil Tippett DESCRIPTION:Save the date – Oct 16 – for Academy Award-Winning Animator and VFX Master Phil Tippett will be delivering a first-look talk at the @VFXSociety Speakers’ Series in Toronto. #TippettStudio \n Tickets Now on Sale!\n https://tytix.tiff.net/scripts/max/10.17.40.32-40000/maxweb.exe URL:https://vesglobal.org/event/toronto-speaker-series-phil-tippett/ CATEGORIES:Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://vesglobal.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/phil.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20141019T174500 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20141019T210000 DTSTAMP:20260410T013038 CREATED:20141017T000656Z LAST-MODIFIED:20141017T000656Z UID:10006823-1413740700-1413752400@vesglobal.org SUMMARY:Screening - FURY w/ Q&A (London) DESCRIPTION:London VES Members And A Guest Are Invited To A Screening Of Columbia Pictures’/Sony Pictures Releasing UK’s FURY followed by a Q&A with the Filmmakers \nPanelists will include Writer/Director David Ayer and Actors Logan Lerman\, Michael Peña\, and Jon Bernthal. \nClick here to RSVP\n (You’ll be notified within 48 hours if they are able to seat you.)\n Sunday\, October 19\, 2014 at 5:45PM\n (Doors open at 5:15PM\, screening at 5:45PM)\n Odeon West End Cinema\n 40 Leicester Square\, London WC2H 7LP\n Click here for a map. \nScreenings are overbooked to compensate for no-shows.
