Beautiful Boy basiert auf einer wahren und berührenden Geschichte, welche aus der Perspektive eines Vaters erzählt wird. Ein Vater, der meint seinen Sohn nicht mehr wieder zu erkennen, seit er den Drogen verfallen ist. Er versucht ihn zu retten und aus seiner Sucht zu ziehen, während er sich gleichzeitig um seine beiden Kinder, die er mit seiner neuen Frau hat, kümmern muss. Während dem Entzug wird sein Sohn (Nic Sheff) immer wieder rückfällig [ « Der Rückfall gehört zur Genesung dazu. » ] Ich denke, dass der Film sehr gute Szenen hat (Bsp. erster Rausch Nic am College). Auch die Gegenüberstellungen zwischen alten Erinnerungen des Vaters an den « alten » Sohn und dann den neuen und damit die Realität. Außerdem wird die Anfangsszene wieder aufgegriffen, nach der Vorstellung des Sohnes (aus der Perspektive des Vaters). Diesmal hat der Zuschauer mehr Kontext. Auch tolle Symbole sind in dem Film zu finden (bsp. Auto). Während des Films fiel mir auf, dass ein/das Auto häufig als Symbol für den Rückfall Nics genutzt wurde, was ich ein schönes Detail finde. Verwirrend finde ich aber, wie die Geschichte (vor allem zu Anfang) in der Zeit springt. Ich konnte in teilen leider nicht ganz folgen.

Wiki.

Beautiful Boy is a 2018 American biographical drama film directed by Felix van Groeningen, in his English-language feature debut. The screenplay, written by Luke Davies and van Groeningen, is based on the memoirs Beautiful Boy: A Father's Journey Through His Son's Addiction by David Sheff and Tweak: Growing Up on Methamphetamines by Nic Sheff. The film stars Steve Carell, Timothée Chalamet, Maura Tierney, and Amy Ryan, and deals with a father-son relationship increasingly strained by the latter's drug addiction.

Beautiful Boy had its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 7, 2018, and was theatrically released in the United States on October 12, 2018, by Amazon Studios. The film was a box-office disappointment, grossing $16 million on a $25 million budget. However, it received generally positive reviews from critics, who praised the performances of Carell and Chalamet. For his work, Chalamet earned nominations at the Golden Globes, Screen Actors Guild Awards, BAFTA Awards and Critics’ Choice Awards, among others.
