Good not great. Loved seeing a female coming of age movie actually written and directed by a woman. That's refreshing. Great characters. Solid writing. Loved the subjects and themes tackled. But as a film it just didn't quite come together. It was missing cinematic elements. It should have been written and directed by a man.

Speaking of, I saw The Killing of a Sacred Deer. It was bad. Pretty funny, though.

Watch for a movie around New Years called Michael Inside.
It’ll change you profoundly.

Ingrid Goes West.
I like it. I expected to be more of a comedy and instead i got a pretty clever view of people who need social media to become somebody else. Audrey Plaza is magnificent.
