SHOW BITS: Watch that boy Ellar run

LOS ANGELES (AP) – It was a mad dash for Ellar Coltrane.

The 20-year-old actor who played the boy in “Boyhood” ran from the back of the Dolby Theatre to join co-star Ethan Hawke and director Richard Linklater near the front in cheering Patricia Arquette’s best supporting actress award.

After Arquette accepted her Oscar, Coltrane went back to his seat while Hawke and Linklater continued to celebrate in the aisle with rapper-actor Common.
