CAPTAIN FANTASTIC
Deep in the forests of the Pacific Northwest, isolated from society, a devoted father (Viggo Mortensen) dedicates his life to transforming his six young children into extraordinary adults. But when a tragedy strikes the family, they are forced to leave this self-created paradise and begin a journey into the outside world that challenges his idea of what it means to be a parent and brings into question everything he's taught them.
Meet the Characters
|
|
|
|
|
|---|---|---|---|
Ben Cash (Viggo Mortensen)Ben Cash and his family live deep in the wilderness of Washington State. Far from society, Ben and Leslie devote their entire existence to raising their kids: homeschooling them to be rigorous critical thinkers, training them like professional athletes, teaching them to flourish without modern technologies, and demonstrating how to co-exist with the natural world. |
Grandpa Jack (Frank Langella)Leslie's father, Jack Bertrang is sent into a tailspin of grief by his daughter’s suicide. Jack blames Ben for the death of his daughter and is determined to rescue his grandchildren from Ben and his lifestyle choices, ultimately fighting for the custody of his six grandchildren. |
Leslie Cash (Trin Miller)Leslie Cash gave up her lucrative law practice to dedicate her life to raising her children. Leslie has a long history of mental illness and her sudden death forces, in an effort to give her the funeral she wanted, the Cash family into the outside world. |
Harper (Kathryn Hahn)Harper is Ben’s younger sister. Married to Dave, they live in suburban Sacramento with their two teenaged boys. Harper does the best she can to raise her kids while working fulltime. She struggles to understand her brother and his choices, and genuinely wants to help him deal with this tragedy. |
|

|
|
|
|---|---|---|---|
Dave (Steve Zahn)Harper's husband, Dave, is unable to adequately explain the reality of her death to his kids. He tries to help Harper confront Ben about the new realities of his life and ends up caught between his wife and her brother. |
Jackson (Teddy Van Ee)Jackson, the 13-year-old son of Dave and Harper, like many American teens his age, dresses in skater clothes, loves computer games, and is deeply immersed in popular culture. Jackson has only seen his cousins periodically throughout the years and they are as alien to him as he is to them. |
Justin (Elijah Stevenson)Dave and Harper’s 15 years old son, Justin is dressed in the same skater clothes as his brother Jackson and is equally immersed in popular culture. Like many suburban teenagers his age, school is not the source of joy and intellectual stimulation that it is for his cousins. |
Bodevan (George MacKay)Bursting at the seams, 18 year old Bodevan is no longer a boy. Like all the Cash children, he is in exceptional physical shape, an advanced Yogi and hunter, and intellectually far advanced for his age. Bo helps his father keep the family together. Inevitably, however, Bo confesses his desperate need to leave the family to forge his own life in the outside world. |

|---|---|---|---|
Kielyr (Samantha Isler)15 years old, Kielyr is Vespyr's twin sister, in exceptional physical shape and intellectually, far advanced for her age. Kielyr shares a special bond with her twin, and they share a secret, non-verbal, language. |
Vespyr (Annalise Basso)Kielyr's twin sister, Vespyr, redefines the concept of 'tomboy.' Though she’s equally intellectually advanced, she is perhaps the tougher of the two. When the time comes, Vespyr doesn’t hesitate to risk her life to 'rescue' her younger brother. |
Rellian (Nicholas Hamilton)A boy of 14, Rellian, unlike the other five kids, has re-focused the critical thinking taught by his parents back on their very parenting choices. He has insight into the cost their lifestyle has taken on his mother’s mental health and this knowledge torments him. |
Zaja (Shree Crooks)Though 8 years old, Zaja’s intellectual curiosity is nothing but a source of great energy, excitement, and joy. She collects road-kill and is an amateur taxidermist. |

|---|---|---|---|
Nai (Charlie Shotwell)The youngest, at just 6 years old, Nai is as capable as his siblings; he can hunt, rock climb, and accurately define the word "fascism.” He is also the most demonstrative of the Cash children. A true child of the forest, Nai prefers to be nude whenever possible. |

Truly Fantastic Movie
Alongside NightLet me ask you this. If you were capable of raising your children to be supermen, would you do it?If you could raise your children to be capable of survival in extreme circumstances, literate beyond all social metrics, athletic to the point of Olympic quality, polylingual to the point that there needs to be rules about what languages it's impolite to use, trained to be skeptical about everything especially their teacher, and raised with an expectation that no matter how harsh their parents would never lie to them in the slightest regard, would you do it?Of course you wouldn't.I would if I had the ability.I do not share the communistic belief system of Ben, the father in Captain Fantastic. But his method of raising his children to be independent is, to my way of thinking, fantastic indeed.Like the literary analysis of Lolita we are given in this movie, the character of Ben is profoundly disturbing.This movie literally gave me a nightmare. It's that good.The reason I did not give this movie five stars is the ending. These children, who are already educated beyond college level, have nothing to learn from an ordinary school. Waiting for a school bus to take them to one is a pathetic sell-out. And I write that as someone who in seventh grade outscored his entire K-12 public school system in reading comprehension. I know what it means to be an outsider.I made a movie also on Amazon Prime that I have hoped to be as disturbing. Look to the product link.
