Boy A
Tuesday, September 23rd, 2008Jack (Andrew Garfield) is released from prison, finally, at the age of 24 … having been institutionalized for most of his life.
He and another boy murdered a child, when they were themselves children.
When Jack is released from prison, with a necessary new identity, his counsellor Terry (Peter Mullan as a convincingly flawed mentor), believes so fully in his right to redemption, you can see Jack wanting and willing to believe him.
As the movie unfolds, Jack’s doubts continue to arise, through a series of episodes (drug use, a fight, trespassing) he finds it impossible to escape from his criminal past, despite a heroic rescue of a young girl trapped in a crashed car.
