Yeah, well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.

In your opinion, what's next for Mason?

Hi Ellar,

I just wanted to tell you what a profound effect 'Boyhood' has has on me. This year, I turned 18 and finished school. I go to university in September.

I felt such a connection with the character of Mason and was moved in a way I don't think I have ever been by film, at least not recently. The final mother-to-son monologue brought me to tears.

When I returned home from the cinema I felt a strange sense of release, as though all the anxieties I had been habouring about the future had evaporated. Your unique film really put things into perspective.

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you, and Richard, Patricia, Ethan - everyone involved - for partaking in this cinematic landmark that has managed to bring a sense of clarity to my life.

My question is, as you worked closely with Arquette and Hawke during your formative years, do you feel as though your relationship with them is similar to that between and child and a parent?

Were the teases of danger (e.g. the saw blade, the gun, looking at phone while driving) deliberately included?

If you had to rename the film, what would you title it?
