[.ca] The United States of Leland (Widescreen)



From Amazon.com:
The United States of Leland isn't a whodunit. The opening scenes of Matthew Ryan Hoge's unusual murder mystery make it clear that Leland P. Fitzgerald (The Believer's Ryan Gosling) is the killer. But why did he kill? Now that the deed is done, Leland is staying in a detention center. Everybody, but especially new teacher Pearl Madison (Don Cheadle), wants to know why he killed the mentally challenged brother of girlfriend Becky (Jena Malone). After all, Leland seemed to genuinely like the kid. Leland is just as confused (and can't remember committing the act), but he reveals more and more clues as he gradually opens up to Pearl. His estranged novelist father Albert (Kevin Spacey), meanwhile, just wants to spin another bestseller out of his son's story. Writer-director Hoge doesn't provide any easy answers in this compelling, complicated look at teenage depression. Featuring music by the Fire Theft's Jeremy Enigk. --Kathleen C. Fennessy


Greatest movie of all time.:
This movie is the greatest movie ever made. (Says Pat & Deej)The acting is the best you'll see. The story line is fantastic and gripping. Watch this, and you'll never forget Leland P Fitzgerald.


Amazing movie!:
Great movie and acting jobs on all aspects. Although right at the beginning of the film you know that Leland was the murderer, but issues surrounding why he would kill a handicaped kid oly come out atthe end. In the meantime you must watch as both Leland's faily and the victim's family are tearing apart from within themselves. And the writer (Cheadle) who is the only one who actually gives a damn to figure out why Leland did this hanous crime also goes through his own prolems. This movie is a definite must-see with a terrrriiiffffiiiiiccc ending! enjoy!
