Hello and welcome to The Shelter Diner - named after the busy Pacific Diner that Zach works at. It's my hope that people who have enjoyed the movie will come here to discuss it and share their art and enthusiasm. Here's a minor example of how things can go but, please consider it only a starting point:



When I watch Zach skateboarding at the beginning of the film I can't help but smile over the thought that at that point he has no idea whatsoever how profoundly his life is going to change. There is this amazing journey in the works even as he is just trying to get through the day.


I'm looking forward to hearing from you!

And while Shaun might initially be the teacher it really looks they they have this great influence on each other.

Absolutely! I loved that they both encouraged each other, Shaun urging Zach to go to school and practice his art, and Zach telling Shaun he was a good writer and he liked his book.

I presumed it was a Kung Fu teacher/student riff, as well. *shrug* What do I know? *g*
