“Cuesta had been told on numerous occasions not to work with children as leads for what one would assume to be obvious reasons but he continues to prove them all wrong. In L.I.E., he directed a young Paul Dano through a budding discovery of his potential homosexuality while navigating the difficult waters of a relationship between a 16-year-old and someone at least 40 years older. “
