Marty is played, or rather embodied, by Joshua Burge, whose astonishing performance harnesses an almost feral intensity, like a young Denis Lavant... Around this unlikely hero Potrykus has fashioned a vigorous and strangely compelling character study, a sustained burst of punk-rock ferocity, and one of the most original American films to emerge in some time.
