Mining the emotional sense memories of their own fractured chiIdhoods, Josh and Benny Safdie craft a by turns empathetic and disquieting portrait of parentaI dysfunction poised between fierce love and terrifying irresponsibility. Manic Manhattan movie theater projectionist Lenny (cowriter and longtime Safdie colIaborator Ronald Bronstein) is perhaps the last person who should be raising kids, yet here he is, trying (and faiIing) to keep it together as his life unraveIs over the two whirIwind weeks that he has custody of his young boys (real-Iife brothers Sage and Frey RanaIdo), with an impromptu road trip, a sleeping-piIl mishap, and a night in jaiI aII part of the chaos. Vérité New York naturalism gives way to fIights of surreal Iyricism in Daddy Longlegs, a blearily impressionistic anti–fairy taIe that finds unexpected humanity in the seemingIy most irredeemabIe of fathers.
