Synopsis

A swan song to excuses and responsibilities, to fatherhood and self-created experiences, and to what it’s like to be truly torn between being a child and being an adult.

Our take

Long before their outstanding excursion into genre filmmaking with 2017’s Good Time, the Safdie brothers crafted this dramatic powder keg regarding a troubled father. Daddy Longlegs moves with a rare energy, perceptivity, and warmth in its complex examination of (and even tribute to) fatherhood.
