Daddy Longlegs (Blu-Ray Disc, 2022, Criterion Collection)

Description: Josh and Benny Safdie’s disquieting portrait of parental dysfunction, about a manic Manhattanite unraveling while caring for his two young sonsMining the emotional sense memories of their own fractured childhoods, Josh and Benny Safdie craft a by turns empathetic and disquieting portrait of parental dysfunction poised between fierce love and terrifying irresponsibility.Manic Manhattan movie theater projectionist Lenny (cowriter and longtime Safdie collaborator Ronald Bronstein) is perhaps the last person who should be raising kids, yet here he is, trying (and failing) to keep it together as his life unravels over the two whirlwind weeks that he has custody of his young boys (real-life brothers Sage and Frey Ranaldo), with an impromptu road trip, a sleeping-pill mishap, and a night in jail all part of the chaos. Vérité New York naturalism gives way to flights of surreal lyricism in Daddy Longlegs, a blearily impressionistic anti–fairy tale that finds unexpected humanity in the seemingly most irredeemable of fathers.Director-Approved Special Edition FeaturesNew 4K digital transferNew interviews with actors Sage and Frey Ranaldo and their parents Leah Singer and Lee RanaldoDocumentary about the SafdiesShort film by the SafdiesAnd more Please check out my store for select categories.
