I'm a big Richard Linklater fan. The 61-year-old Texas-born director, screenwriter and producer has one of the most eclectic filmographies out there. From his hangout classic "Dazed and Confused" to his critically acclaimed "Before" trilogy to his audacious "Boyhood." I had a chance to meet and listen to Linklater during an appearance at Arkansas Cinema Society's Filmland event. Hearing him talk about his deep love for cinema, the inspiration that has helped shape his wide-ranging style, and his uniquely personal approach to filmmaking only solidified my appreciation for his body of work.
Critics are praising the film's nostalgic appeal and Linklater's novel approach to first person storytelling Richard Linklater's 'Apollo 10 1/2: A Space Age Childhood' lands on Netflix today. Here's what critics said after the film's SXSW premiere.
