Lady Bird is SO GREAT y'all. I think it's opening semi-widely this week, and I cannot recommend it highly enough. Saoirse Ronan is incredible, but so is every single supporting character around her. It will make you happy and sad and nostalgic and full of emotions and also make you want to call your mother immediately.
Yes to all this. (Well, except the mother part.) I had to check my watch at the end because I was sure the movie was longer than 90 minutes. It wasn't, but the various characters were such well-rounded portrayals the movie seemed very "full" if that makes sense. A very charming and understated coming-of-age tale.
On another random note, I'm glad we are all down with acknowledging that women masturbate, but I think I've exhausted my movie representations quota for that this year.
