Ryan

Rating:★★★★★
Category:Movies
Genre: Documentary
This movie is alternately funny and depressing. It tells the life of an animator, Ryan Larkin, who showed so much promise as a young man. He was nominated for the Oscars thirty years ago. It shows him now as a homeless forgotten genius begging for spare change.
His is a life that every artist fears. How can one create something that equals his last masterpiece? What happens if his well of creativity runs dry? "Sometimes it's not about the money" but why does it still matter anyway?
It's been a long time since I last felt totally moved by a movie. It's so good it will make you want to weep.
