Rating: 3/5 --
A deeply observational film focused on mood and moments that could have used a more fleshed-out story.

The Film Yap
"Buck Run" has affecting moments, helped by David Barker's editing and Anna Franquesa Solano's atmospheric cinematography. The early teen years are tough; this film creates a touching portrait of a young man we root for to survive his grim circumstances.

The story will be lacking for some, but the raw emotion should be enough to capture the attention of some members of the audience. Atmospheric.

Buck Run would have worked better as a short. But as it stands, the cinematography and performances carry the film and it's worth a look.

This impeccably crafted indie offers a humble look at Very Small Town USA ... but little else.

It would benefit from more of a structural spine, and the characters need more definition (including fleshed-out backstory) to avoid feeling like an evocative, elliptical short story simply stretched to fit a longer frame.

A tender story about family and loss, "Buck Run," is a delicate indie that carefully explores a moment of transition.

Description by OLDIES.com:
Director Nick Frangione draws on his childhood memories of growing up an outsider in rural Pennsylvania for this affecting drama. After the death of his mother, heartbroken 15-year-old Shaw (Nolan Lyons, Boardwalk Empire) must move in with his estranged father (veteran character actor James Le Gros), a conflicted alcoholic more concerned with hunting deer than raising a son. Shaw, already a bullied outcast at school, struggles to come to terms with his grief and his new life with an emotionally distant dad while wanting a traditional funeral for his mom something his father can't afford. Frangione's strengths in Buck Run are twofold: spot-on acting from his two leads and a perfect evocation of what it's like to live in conservative, rural America at this particular moment. In a world of swap meets and damaged souls, will this grieving teen find a place to fit in?
