Lady Bird

this movie just nails what it’s like to be a senior in high school and hate where you live. Ladybird is annoying sometimes but it’s so accurate. the fights with her mom hit hard. they’re yelling about dumb stuff like dresses or college, but it’s really about both of them feeling stuck and not knowing how to say they care. everything else works too! the catholic school stuff, your first love turning out to be a gay dude and then straight onto the pretentious boyfriend who plays guitar and acts too cool (HA) Beanie Feldstein is great as the best friend. it’s funny in parts, sad in others and doesn’t try to wrap everything up perfectly. you just grow up, leave and maybe figure out your parents are people too. go to rewatch everytime.
