it took the director 12 years to make the film ，which squeezed a boy's boyhood (a boy from 6 to 18)in

the film reminded me of the 《7 up 》series and 《before 》series that also took a very long time to film and still the same actors .

no dramatic

it is so plain so real that just make you think that this is your life or someone who around your life .

what I want to say it's that what it filmed was not so far away from you and me .

the mother had a emotional outburst when her kid Mason was packing things to leave home in his

she thought she would had more after marriage、giving birth 、divorce 、getting the master degree ，raising kids .

but now kids grew up,the only thing she could think of was her

I think this really make sense to you and me that we should live in the moment .

also you can learn the difference between east and the west

Mason was kind of driven away from home by their mother and had to make living by himself as soon as he was

Mason didn't look sad at all but I was sad when I saw the difference between me and him .

mother got divorced again and again in this 12 years (not with the same man )，I don't know how American kids feel .

but for me ，it was

how could I survive in such a changeful environment？or maybe things go as the saying goes "A side water and soil raises one party

question 's solved!

the other difference that caught my eyes was that the dad and the son are good

it may be a gap between father and son at the very beginning,

but the father bridged it what method did dad use？

communication it was!
