Starting Young

About This Movie

Starting Young is a curious gem from 2002 that taps into a naïve yet electrifying vibe. It features performances from Robbie Angel and Julian Pierce that are, well, quite something—there’s a raw energy that carries the film. The atmosphere is playfully provocative, and the pacing keeps you engaged, oscillating between humor and unexpected depth. It's not just about the surface; there's an exploration of youth and desire lurking beneath. The practical effects, however minimal, create a certain charm that adds to its uniqueness, making it stand out within its niche. You can tell it doesn't take itself too seriously, which is kind of refreshing in a way.

Starting Young has found its way into various formats over the years, but it's still not the easiest film to track down. For collectors, any release carries a bit of intrigue due to its obscure status and the unconventional approach the film takes. The limited home media offerings mean that it hasn't saturated the market, and that scarcity often piques interest among niche collectors. It’s one of those titles that sparks conversations at gatherings, given its unusual premise and performances.
