Variety idk first of all a nan Goldin cameo and photograph for poster but just yes idk captured how I felt in this weird moment in my 20s without actually representing the actual events
Edge of 17 is such a cringe reflection of being a teenager with a phone and internet
The beguiled I thought was a good portrayal of subtle and internal female dynamics that idk when you describe to men they’re like what are upset about
Also about the flip between being like this guys a god and then like omg gross
Picnic at hanging rock (original) just beautiful and serene very soothing

🥽cute coming of age movie with characters I can relate to through every struggle and the perfect amount of awkward teenness

idk if it’s the weirdest but there are many objectively uncomfortable scenes and it’s not a sweet romcom or fun PG flick etc… but it’s def a comfort film for me! i think it’s the underlying self empowerment themes? (plus the nostalgia; i loved it as a teenager)

📺a lot of these are not that critically acclaimed but they are still really fun watches!
1. SAVING FACE (2008): it is a really touching film which is set in flushing ny, it is centred around a young Chinese woman and her exploration of her sexuality. surprisingly a very easy watch but also very heartfelt.
2. FRANCES HA (2013): a bit basic but still amazing, the main character which is played by Greta Gerwig navigates feeling lost in her 20s. me and my best friend quote this movie all the time.
3. COOL RUNNINGS (1993): i grew up with this movie always in the background, it is such a classic. very funny premise: based around a jamaican bobsledding team. very lovable characters, it is a comfort watch 100%.
4. SAVE THE LAST DANCE (2001): it is def a guilty pleasure watch, it's not critically acclaimed but when has that ever stopped me. great soundtrack, vibes overall are so comforting. the storyline is very predictable but like idc.
5. 50/50 (2011): as much as i don't like joseph gordon levit, this movie is so funny and heartfelt.
6. SHE'S THE MAN (2006): when i was 14 i had to run a play in my class and we got assigned shakespeare's twelvth night, and my teacher said to watch this movie. it is such a funny movie, again quite a guilty pleasure watch but so good.
7. INTO THE WILD (2008): this rec is quite film bro but the true story it is based on was a hyperfixation of mine for years. it is a dramatic retelling of the life of chris mc candless (made my dad cry which is not an easy feat)
8. UNE FILLE FACILE (2019): set in cannes and follows two cousins. speaks a lot to female relationships and may be my fav on the list. i won't spoil anything here, i just love it and you should watch it (it is also very beautiful)
9. THE HAND OF GOD (2021): set in 1980s napoli, follows a boy and his love for football as well as his complicated family life. such a gorgeous film
