THE FLORIDA PROJECT knocks on the door of those living in the shadow of "happily ever after." Sean Baker's roving lens not only invites us in, but celebrates the hyper-colorful humanity between the high-stakes struggles of adults and the untethered innocence of childhood. Brooklynn Prince channels Hal Roach's Little Rascals in a performance for the ages, and Willem Dafoe demands to be heard as the beleaguered motel manager whose purple palace stands as a monument to dreams deferred and an America ignored.
