ButFlower,directed by Max Winkler (son of Henry) is in a different league.
You know, teen stuff.
One thing I do appreciate aboutFloweris its embrace of its lower-middle-class SoCal setting.
The film takes place over the summer, and the film feels as drifty and aimless as summer break.
It also feels just as sweaty.
That well-observed naturalism is even more of a stark background for these bizarre characters.
The two main exceptions are Heidecker and especially Morgan, by far the best performer in the film.
Luke is a darker, stranger figure than most miserable misfits are allowed to be onscreen.
