I’m always a sucker for indie coming-of-age films so it’s no surprise how much I loved this movie. The lead, Elsie Fisher, is just great in it. I was rooting for Kayla so goddamn hard in every scene. Heartbreaking and hilarious. Director Bo Burnham comes from the land of youtube and you can tell he’s got a lot of expertise in the video/social media stuff that’s all through the film. A must see, especially for dads who have girls in middle school.
Tonight I’m seeing, Leave no Trace. Tomorrow, Sorry to Bother You with director Q&A after the screening. Woo, movie week while the kids are at camp!
