Good art is all about making people feel something. The emotions this film brings up are visceral. Evil is often a straw man set up by people with a philosophy to push, but "often" isn't the same as "always" and this film is a case in point if when there is no possible way to justify someone's behavior.
The film highlights how loneliness, social isolation, and the demands of modern life can cause havoc in young people's lives. This is a work of fiction that could have been inspired by a news story in any city or town in the U. S. It is a modern story in the classic Brothers Grimm style, without being sanitized by Disney animators. With standout acting and photography that is both beautiful and shows the banality of modern living, it is a cautionary tale that hits hard and makes you want to scream.
Great performance from Lily McInerny.
Really nice little indie coming of age film.
Peaceful and realistic slice of life kinda story.
I really liked it.
It was really nicely crafted.
I could understand motivations of every character.
There were some really nice family and frienship drama that i did relate in some levels.
But i can also see that this film will be very divisive.
There has been lot of conversations about age gap relationships in films lately.
But in this film that relationship is clearly supposed to be super uncomfortable and inappropriate.
And i mean super uncomfortable at so many momens.
Red flags were seen everywhere.
But i can really see that these kinda relationships are happening in real life.
Really well made film.
Nice looking.
Really naturalistic.
Mostly no soundtrack at all.
Nice performances.
I can see that Lily McInerney has bright future ahead.
She was really good in this.
Nice supporting performances too.
If this gets some really good studio to distribute it, i can really see it finding own audience.
I really hope so.
Or then it wil remain as little Sundance hidden gem.
I enjoyed my time watching this.
Acting and script are decent, characters are believeable, and the flow is solid. The main takeaway from this film is that Lea's mother, Sandra (Gretchen Mol) has her own busy interpersonal life and foesn't appear to take a serious interest in Lea. Her friends aren't mature enough for her, her boyfriend is a jerk, and Tom seems to be the answer to it all. The way the film presents the two of them feels organic and realistic.
Worth a watch!

[Lea is being called out by her friends for dating an older man]
Jared: You don't have to answer that, Lea. We all know what you've been up to.
[Lea sits in silent disbelief]
Jared: Oh, come on. Don't gimme that confused look. We all know that you've been hanging out with the geriatric.
Amber: Jared, you asshole.
[to Lea]
Amber: Lea, I didn't mean to say anything. And they said that they would never repeat it. I promise, I'm sorry.
Darren: Lea, the man is a pervert.
Lea: No, he's not.
Jared: He's a pedophile.
[Lea is clearly upset]
Patrick: I don't blame him. I mean, we all know younger girls feel different.
Amber: Ew, Patrick.
[guys laugh]
Jared: You don't know what you're talking about.
Patrick: Yes, I do. I literally fucked that older lady.
[Lea gets increasingly annoyed at the graphic details]
Patrick: She was like in her forties, but she actually was kind of hot, to be honest.
Amber: Disgusting, Patrick.
Darren: No, you didn't.
Patrick: Yes I did.
Darren: No, you didn't.
Patrick: On that trip with my family to Mexico I told you about. I swear to God, bro. I'm not kidding, older women, they feel different. It's like, not as good. I think it like, it like... stretches out over time or something.
Jared: I'm too high for this.
Patrick: I'm just saying like, this guy's lucky.
