This press release constitutes a “designated news release” for the purposes of Dream Industrial REIT’s prospectus supplement dated Februto its short form base shelf prospectus dated October 11, 2019 NEWS WIRE SERVICES OR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES If the actors and director manage to depict a convincing mood, then that is all I need to be satisfied, and they have certainly done that with "Dream Boy.NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. All of that being said, I understand the disappointment with the ambiguous denouement, but plots are relatively tangential for me. There is a lot of attention paid to subtle, non-verbal forms of communication - glances, stares, half-smiles, physical contact - all of which create a much more realistic depiction of young, gay love than the more chatty gay coming-of-age movies that I'm used to seeing. I've read some criticism that Bender's performance was "wooden," and it strikes me that if you were not an awkward, inarticulate teenager you might not be able to identify with the performance, but if you were the kind of kid who stayed inside most of the day you will probably find the portrayal of your former self incredibly accurate and moving. Sadly, I think actors with roles that are over-the-top, histrionic, and melodramatic often get the most praise, but it seems equally if not more difficult to portray a shy, introverted character, and the actors who really nail these roles often don't get the recognition they deserve (re: Heath Ledger in Brokeback Mountain). Here we have a rare example of the kind of role that doesn't seem "acted" at all it's as if Bender embodies the character. I was completely convinced that Bender was Nathan. I was particularly impressed with Bender whose performance reminds me of Gabourey Sidibe in "Precious." While it is true that the awkward, inarticulate teenager is well-trod territory in gay cinema, I've never seen the role acted so flawlessly.
While the acting of the supporting cast in "Dream Boy" can be somewhat inconsistent, the acting of the two main characters, Roy (Max Roeg) and Nathan (Stephan Bender), is very strong. Capturing a mood is very difficult, and it relies on a number of factors including acting, cinematography, and music. In "Dream Boy," the mood is both melancholy and sweet and there is a constant, if not always apparent, hint of anxiety and apprehension that builds throughout the movie. I am the kind of movie watcher who enjoys a well executed and consistent tone and mood. Others enjoy the visual and audio experience.
Some people like an elaborate, fast-paced plot. People watch movies for different reasons.
