Pleasantville 1998
Bro what who wrote this. Soooo slow and I lost interest like halfway through. It needed to be much sillier. I expected more from the banger movie poster and Reese and Tobey. I should have just rewatched teen beach movie

Ghost World 2001
There’s very good 2001 hangout spot representation (coffee shops, 50s diners, video stores, pacific theaters). The TV commercials, billboard-lined streets, and excess of company logos made for a perfectly bleak backdrop for Enid’s summer of ennui. And I love when girls are weird and off-putting and kind of evil accidentally. I think this movie will haunt me

Real Women Have Curves 2002
In the transitional summer between high school and what lies ahead, we follow the main character as she navigates cultural/familial expectations, bodily autonomy, self acceptance, etc. It's refreshing to see a coming of age film that doesn't center around the main character's self importance (as many of its white counterparts do). A must-see for the coming of age genre
