It's one of those movies on addictions that you have to watch, said the critics unanimously creating a huge expectation among those who await the release in theaters of Ben is Back, the new film by Peter Hedges.
What is Ben is Back about?
Closed to the stories that analyze that "complex beast" that the family can be, Peter Hedges tells a story in Christmas Eve located in a small North American town.
Starring Oscar winner Julia Roberts and Hedges' own son, Lucas, this drama has great opportunities to earn acting nominations in the Oscar.
It is enough to watch the official trailer to check the emotional burden that represents Ben’s (Lucas Hedges) return to home, a young man of 19 years addicted to drugs who visits his family.
His mother, starred by the actress who has not stopped creating film milestones throughout her career, must deal with the drama of his son and at the same time prevent their family environment from falling apart.
With a cast completed by Courtney B. Vance, Kathryn Newton and Tim Guinee, the new film by eclectic Peter Hedges aims straight at the heart and promises to reflect on one of the greatest scourges of modern society.
