Linas Phillips in Rainbow Time gives the best performance of a developmentally challenged adult that I have ever seen.
It's a strange film, absolutely brilliant in terms of awkward tension and frustratingly honest in it's depiction of a man who can be very difficult to live with. The laughs are truthful and again, honest. It is a story with it's heart right up in front and it asks nothing more than patience and understanding.
This is a laugh out loud film and it's as forthright as any film I can remember seeing. It pulls no punches and actually embraces the aspects of character that other film makers may balk at when offered the script.
The plaudits belong to Linas Phillips for this little masterpiece. This is how you make independent films.
