the youth in u be a pitch perfect gem . i saw this stunning short at this year 2005 sundance festival . the story take me on a profoundly transforming journey . the directing by joshua leonard and the acting of kelli garner and lukas haas and the art direction and the cinematography and the score every element be true to the bone . one can only hope that this exquisite and excruciating film be prelude to more great work from this gift director . just a a short film be show before a feature at sundance and commercial movie theatre use a similar format in time past . it would be wonderful if miniature masterpiece like the youth in u could reach a wider audience this way .
