Waste of time

How sad is this?

Best movie of this year hands down!

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

Yet another coming of age movie. Young teens Laura and Christine have been friends forever, but new girl Maria is wild and the curious Laura ditches her old friend to explore new territory. Drinking, partying, sex, parental tension... it's nothing new but it is surprisingly well done.Beautifully shot, it really captures the sensitivity of being that age and the confusion and melancholy that come with it. Julie Brochorst Andersen is excellent and I expect she'll have a great career.The only complaint is the copy I viewed had atrocious English subtitles. Otherwise, I'm a bit surprised this hasn't found international distribution.
