    Yet another female gooner movie. Dishonest to call it anything else. Mumblecore version “stepsister head stuck in washing machine”. The girls are gooning to depraved stuff. They just dress it up in handheld 35mm and frivolous neorealism.

    ★★★½

    Read the book at what I consider to be an appropriate, non-cringey age (19?? Lmk) I’m old asf and more mellow now and I think this adaptation does a great job at depicting the cocktail of restlessness and righteous indignation one feels at that age. 

    It’s unfortunate those Che T-shirts became such a mallcore staple in the 00s because even against the meme backdrop he was actually one of the coolest guys to ever do it.

    Wajda’s signature reactionary politics manifest in a hilarious queer-coded villainous Robespierre and company.
