Giants Being Lonely is full of beautifully filmed scenes. It is a tense story of high school kids wrestling with coming of age issues and parental abuse with a truly haunting ending. Watch it.

A remarkable debut from a young talent to watch. Grear Patterson has done an exquisite job of capturing complicated relationships (romantic, familial, peer group), the ache of being caught up in currents beyond your control, feeling alone and invisible in a marriage, and the exhilarating terror of standing on the precipice of adulthood.

A stream of complex simplicity, I willfully gave myself over to this film. The word "alluring" surfacing during, and after my viewing. I was not only drawn-in by the characters, I was drawn into the characters. I watched without having a story-line, and found myself equally interested in each portrayal. This study beautifully captures the depths of heartache, disappointment, and longing perfectly parallel to the superficial embraces of popularity, boldness, and sabotage. The videography has many stunning moments; the practice of filming away from the action, giving the viewer opportunity to welcome their own imagination to play, is a brilliant approach. One cannot help but feel the soothing effect of nature; forest scenes, the pond, the river, the trees - in contrast to the brick and mortar solidity of human emotion. The dream-like, slow-motion-but-in-real-time feeling kept me captivated, perhaps even mesmerized with wonder -where is this leading? Why is this important? What does this mean? There is looming agony tomorrow, of today's actions - tomorrow's fear of yesterday. Knowing discovery will occur, perhaps even inviting it. I exhaled deeply upon finish, as though I had been holding my breath, and quite possibly, I had. Then I watched again. I so badly wanted to soften the ending, but reality is a tough row to hoe. Kudos to Grear Patterson, and crew on this mysterious, haunting tale.

This is a stunning debut film for Grear Patterson. As someone who had seen his early videos, it was recognizable; parts of it felt like Grear's films from his beginnings - beautiful, dreamy cinematography, a building sense of foreboding mixed with innocence. There was some confusion for me, between the main characters, and some plot reaches; an ending that might be rethought. But a great achievement for a young filmmaker.

Grear Patterson is a brilliant storyteller. His creative approach to telling a story charged with tension and complicated characters takes the viewer through a myriad of emotions. Through minimal dialogue and stunning visuals, Patterson has created a gem of a film. He respects the viewer's intelligence and ability to piece together a thought-provoking story without holding their hand. This is what great art does- stirs our emotions and leaves us questioning.

The lush, dreamy visuals in Grear Patterson's directorial debut Giants Being Lonely may at first seem a platform for its beautiful young people to play out a familiar but well-crafted coming of age story. But there's much more going on here than that. Patterson's positioning of baseball rivals/friends Bobby and Adam and their love interest Caroline continually shows that while they may be sexually active and struggling with adult problems, these are still kids not quite emerged from innocence. Patterson continually reinforces this contradiction by lusciously evoking child-like activities: running and jumping through fields, the nervousness of a prom date proposal, a pinecone as a promise of love. If this were all it attempted to do, it would be admirable and worth viewing. However, what's really being exposed in this rural American town is instead a powerful indictment of its adult characters. An abusive coach, alcoholic father, a mother who has forfeited her duty to her child...these are the giants who are truly lonely. A provocative final sequence asks whether they are also ultimately responsible for the tragedy that ensues.

A moving and intimate story that will not leave you indifferent. The mastery of the silences, the moments of tension and discomfort and the great performances make this a film worth seeing.

The act that precipitates the ending is a pure mystery to me. I'd really appreciate a plot spoiler.
