The Place Beyond the Pines Review | Geekenstein

"Ryan Gosling and Bradley Cooper in a crime drama where they sit on opposite sides of the law sounds like a brilliant idea and so many directors would give you a fun movie that is just that. Derek Cianfrance gave us a story that was so much more. Changing characters within a narrative structure that sees each act having one main character would be an impossible task in the hands of a lesser writer or director. The Place Beyond The Pines is such an expansive narrative about such a small, seemingly insignificant story and executes it brilliantly." – David Rhinehart of Geekenstein.com
