C’mon C’mon

Johnny (Joaquin Phoenix, Inherent Vice, Her) and his young nephew, Jesse (Woody Norman), forge a tenuous but transformational relationship when they are unexpectedly thrown together in this delicate and deeply moving story from writer-director Mike Mills (20th Century Women). Johnny is a radio journalist whose trek across the country to interview kids is interrupted by his sister’s (Gaby Hoffmann, Transparent) sudden need for someone to care for eight-year-old Jesse in this “heartfelt and wise (Richard Lawson, Vanity Fair)” story about the connections between adults and children.

"One of the most deeply reflective American filmmakers working today, Mills is a storyteller with a baring, raw sense of honesty"
Tomris Laffly, RogerEbert.com
"[An] insightful and emotionally satisfying film, shot with affecting intimacy"
David Rooney, Hollywood Reporter
