Crying out ‘Loud’
This is a movie made up of voices, and one voice rises above all the others. In director Stephen Daldry’s “Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close,” it is the extraordinary voice of 11-year-old Oskar Schell (newcomer Thomas Horn), who is basically talking nonstop for about 75 percent of the movie. But it is when Oskar starts to pause, allowing knowing silence and other voices to rush in to fill the gaps, that “Loud” gains its real footing.
