Literature isn't highfalutin', it's just wrong (in this instance).
This reminds me of a Slate piece I read a while back. Professors talking about hosts of young college kids that use the word "novel" to describe non-fiction books. Apparently because there is no short word that means "non-fiction book".

Only one of those two movies was 12 years long. Ironically, it was not the movie following the life of a child for 12 years.

Boyhood is pretty great. Some of the acting is atrocious though--like that scene with the high school seniors. How did that make the final cut?

Yeah the acting was god awful but I'm excusing it because the main idea of the movie wouldn't really allow for anything less.
