Paranoid Park

A teenage skateboarder's life begins to fray after he is involved in the accidental death of a security guard. Written and directed by Gus Van Sant (Drugstore Cowboy, My Own Private Idaho, To Die For, many others). A nominee for the Golden Palm at Cannes 2007 and an Independent Spirit Award nominee for Best Director and Picture.

“A haunting, voluptuously beautiful portrait of a teenage boy who, after being suddenly caught in midflight, falls to earth.” (Manohla Dargis, New York Times)

“Van Sant has composed an emotional mosaic that brings you inside [the character]. (Kirk Honeycutt, Hollywood Reporter)

“Through immaculate use of picture, sound and time, the director adds another panel to his series of pictures about disaffected, disconnected youth.” (Todd McCarthy, Variety)
