Review

really good film in the tradition of 500 days of summer. similar soundtrack, feel, look, risks and themes. cast is good across the board and the writing feels true to life. it’s a coming of age story that reveals all the insecurities a thoughtful teenager is likely to have. it’s a very hopeful and empowering film in the end. also has a nod to the comic side of a mental hospital, like some of the parts of one flew over the cuckoo’s nest. this a film i should check out again.
