BEAUTIFUL BOY (M18)
120 minutes/4 stars
In this adaptation of two memoirs - one written by writer David Sheff and the other by his son Nic - Steve Carell plays David, a comfortably middle-class man whose son (Timothee Chalamet) is a methamphetamine addict.
This is a gorgeously shot, quietly arresting portrait of a relationship that tests the limits of unconditional love - how much should a parent take before he cuts ties and walks away? - where everything rests on buying the idea that David loves his son and Nic is worthy of that love.

SGIFF PRESENTS: MOONLIGHT CINEMA
Catch a film outdoors for a change at the inaugural Moonlight Cinema series at Gardens by the Bay, which will be screening two heartwarming films that happen to have the same name, My Girl. Tonight, it is the 1991 American film which stars Macaulay Culkin and Anna Chlumsky as childhood friends who must learn to wrestle with ideas of death.
Tomorrow's screening will be the 2003 Thai cult comedy about a young man who reminisces about his first love in 1980s Thailand.
The characters' experiences in the two movies may vary greatly, but the films share the same themes of sweet childhood innocence and first crushes.
WHERE: Supertree Grove Lawn, Gardens by the Bay, 18 Marina Gardens Drive MRT: Bayfront WHEN: Today and tomorrow, 9pm ADMISSION: Free, register your interest at www.facebook.com/events/291749464888211
