23 year old Bel Powley does a good job of playing 15 year old girl in 1976 San Francisco (not that much is made of that location), separated from her father, entering into a relationship with her mum's boyfriend Alexander Skarsgard (mum played by Kristen Wiig). Feels long (though isn't), but enlivened by drawings and animations from Sara Gunnarsdottir.
Brandon Trost shot it in a muted pallette.
Written by Phoebe Gloekner (author of the source graphic novel) and Heller. Some laughs, quite unflinching, feels real.
There's sure a lot of coke being consumed there. The irony is that the long-haired fellow artist is probably much more suitable for her as a boyfriend than the other chaps.
