"L.I.E." (2001)
Tagline: "On the Long Island Expressway there are lanes going east, lanes going west, and lanes going straight to hell."
Length:
97 minutes
MPAA Rating: R for strong sexual content involving teens,
language and brief violence. (Please note: an unrated version of this film is

Eighty-two percent of the critics on Rotten Tomatoes liked this unsettling indie drama that has pederasty as one of its central themes. Howie (Paul Franklin Dano) is a troubled 14- or 15-year-old boy who lives near the Long Island Expressway (L.I.E.), where his mother was recently killed. He burglarizes houses with his best friend Gary (Billy Kay), and there is a homoerotic tension between the two boys. When Howie's father is jailed, Howie moves in with Big John (Brian Cox), a macho ex-Marine and pederast. What critics like best about this movie is that Big John and Howie are depicted as multidimensional characters rather than as caricatures. "L.I.E." is available on video/DVD in two versions: one is unrated by the MPAA, while the other is R-rated.
