i mean how can you leave this film not bawling your eyes out

This film successfully ragebaiting me in a specific scene is probably the greatest achievement they could’ve possibly done.

Were there a few problematic notions on display? Yea but the overall message of this film is about the passage of time and how queer friendships are sooooo important for any queer person growing up and that’s a message that should be shouted from the rooftops.

Was also fucking cool hearing Nick Ward doing the score (which was obviously ace) and also seeing someone I used to go to school with on the big screen even if it was more of a cameo role.

In the wise words of Sue Sylvester: 'That's the problem with your generation you're obsessed with labels'

I think in a effort to be inclusive and progressive this just comes across as beating ideas over your head multiple times - we get it this family obviously doesn't fuck with monogamy

some of the story choices are frankly super weird? Like why is 16 year old Frances bathing with her mum, why is their grandpa giving them weed gummies, why is their mother allowing them to go around Amsterdam drinking underage with people they've known for a day? Why are we being shown Frances being taken to a literal cruising spot when their still 16? Why is their family super invested in their sex life (there's a difference between making sure your child is being safe than whatever they were doing here). Just super strange choices

Such a lovely film about not only generational trauma, but generational queer trauma. 

This would’ve been five stars if not for the two bathtub scenes. I know it’s such a small detail, but what the actual fuck?
