an endlessly boring 'student movie'
2 January 2001
I had heard about donkey-boy as some kind of landmark of blurring the lines between film and documentary. the same people that think 'gummo' was worth watching could probaly get through this. to me this is another new york attempt to foist limited talent on the rest of the world.

the loss of self
13 December 2000
this film came out about the same time as "bringing out the dead". with all due respect to Martin and Nick-this is the movie they could have made if hollywood hadn't warped the way a story is told. style over substance. with that said-this is a tough film to watch. the performances are dead solid perfect. the voice over is a difficult device to pull off and it doesn't always work here, but... there was a truth that i wanted to watch play out.

an exceptional performance

Henry Thomas showed a restraint, even when the third act turned into horrible hollywood resolution that could've killed this movie, that kept the dignity of a redemption story and as for pure creepiness-sniffing babies?
