I think he played that really, really well--maybe even too well, as in, it really mirrors his own situation, being stuck in a childlike state because of his parents' neglect (not abuse though of course, although that depends on how you define abuse). I like how he adds to the gender-bending aspects of the film, as well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
