- a rather thin story line.
For a first film by Demetri Martin he scores high marks from me! The film is a delight to see with plenty of well thought out cinematography. But the plot is a bit thin as we realize from the beginning Dean has issues with his father and expressing himself over the death of his mother. Somewhere in the story these these two problems will come out.
The sub-story of Dean the NYC native feeling very out of place in L.A. is told refreshingly well. We've seen this topic before but Martin succeeds in making it feel new and original.
"Dean" is a film not to be missed by cinema lovers!
