An intimate drama, Beautiful Boy is a deeply moving portrait of a family’s unwavering love and commitment to each other in the face of their son’s addiction and his attempts at recovery. The film was adapted for the screen by Felix van Groeningen and Luke Davies from two acclaimed memoirs — one from father and journalist David Sheff (Beautiful Boy) and one from his son, Nic Sheff (Tweak). Directed by Felix van Groeningen, Beautiful Boy features an ensemble cast that includes Steve Carell, Timothée Chalamet, Maura Tierney, Kaitlyn Dever, Lisagay Hamilton, Timothy Hutton and Amy Ryan.
