Billy the Kid

(elephant eye films) Release Date: January 3, 2008 Director: Jennifer Venditti Cast: Billy P., Penny Baker, Heather Pelletier Plot: Growing up in small-town Maine, Billy is, in some ways, much like other teenage boys. He's into heavy metal and horror movies and is desperate to find a girlfriend. But in most other ways Billy is an outsider. His self-confessed "issues" can send him into rages, and he often retreats into the world of his imagination – a world of superheroes, poets and fictional characters. Supported by a mother who encourages his unique intelligence and unflagging sincerity, Billy is a disarmingly candid guide to his own self-discovery. Largely told in Billy's own words and filmed with vérité immediacy, "Billy the Kid" is a richly layered snapshot of adolescence – funny, painful, moving, and constantly revealing.
