A couple of weeks ago I told you about a fun summer movie – The Way, Way Back. I am really excited to see this movie (I wish it were going to be on DVD while I’m recuperating from my surgery!). The Way, Way Back will be in theaters on July 5th, and what a great way to kick off Summer!
THE WAY, WAY BACK is the funny and poignant coming of age story of 14-year-old Duncan’s (Liam James) summer vacation with his mother, Pam (Toni Collette), her overbearing boyfriend, Trent (Steve Carell), and his daughter, Steph (Zoe Levin). Having a rough time fitting in, the introverted Duncan finds an unexpected friend in gregarious Owen (Sam Rockwell), manager of the Water Wizz water park. Through his funny, clandestine friendship with Owen, Duncan slowly opens up to and begins to finally find his place in the world – all during a summer he will never forget.
I definitely think I will be heading to the theater to see this, just as soon as I am able. This sounds like the type of movie I could get completely caught up in! If you’d like to see the The Way, Way Back trailer, you can watch it right here!
