Her feature debut - apart from this she's only made Savages - feels autobiographical and honest in tone, dealing matter-of-factly with young girl's experiences with sex and family relationships. Not heavy, quite funny. Natasha Lyonne (also in American Pie), Marisa Tomei, David Krumholtz (perhaps familiar from The Good Wife) and Alan Arkin are commendable, and the scene where Arkin is confronted by arsehole brother Carl Reiner is painful.
Shot by Tom Richmond (not of the English Richmond clan).
