now why would u kiss a 12 year old on the lips bro🧍♀️
the movie was nice and all, emotional for sure, and the cinematography was kinda interesting. but multiple scenes made me feel uncomfortable bec of the way they interacted... i tried to think of their bond as like, an older sister and younger brother thing, but um have you heard of freud? the kiss was not needed, it was just problematic...
giving this a 1.5 rating because this was nice, couldve made better choices though (i.e. not making their relationship weird)

All I could think of was uptown girls while watching this. I honestly only had it in my watch list because of Leighton meester, but I loved the bond that was formed between them. It reminded me of a older sister younger brother bond in some aspects
