I have just sat up until 1.30 am to watch this film and enjoyed every minute of it. I have not enjoyed so much a late-night movie that has been new to me for ages.And to think I was going to avoid this, due to bad reviews. Jake Gyllenhaal is brilliant as the naive and frustrated lad discovering himself and the world out there. It is a story for everyone. Soosie Kwirtz ( sorry if I misspelled that) is great as the mad possessive mother and a wonderful character-full cast with weird and wacky but quite believable crazy happenings. The dad is wonderfully underplayed. I just feel so glad I saw this, and will enjoy watching it again. I love movies true to their purpose (All About Eve , Grapes of Wrath etc) This is not in their league as a great movie but it's heart and soul is in the film as much as any other great movie. This could so be a cult film.
