You've just described 'boys' perfectly. Always a puzzle, sometimes an enigma and yet readable like a book. Given the ultimate freedoms without adult role models around to guide them, boys can easily undo a sort life, more specifically, their own.
I haven't seen the movie, but Emile could only do this role perfectly. I'd be walking away from this movie wondering where we had failed this boy....how could you not?
