no context to the film, yes i get it took 12 years to make and the actors age in it but like what else ..
Linklater did it the hard way, but he did it. You can't say he didn't put 12 years into a 3 hour film. You can't say it didn't work or wasn't believable. This really is what life is like. Things change.
