Dir: Olivia Wilde, 102 minutes, USA, 2019 Cert: 16
Cast: Kaitlyn Dever, Beanie Feldstein, Jessica Williams
Study hard, don’t slack off, get into a good college: that’s the formula for high school success, or so think best friends Molly (Beanie Feldstein) and Amy (Kaitlyn Dever). That’s until they discover that their hard-partying classmates are also bound for the Ivy League.
Putting aside the ring binders, they commit to spending the last night of high school experiencing the debauched life unlived.
Actor Olivia Wilde’s directorial debut rewrites teen movie cliches to tell a smart, inclusive story that fizzes with superb set pieces and hilarious performances.
A tale of female camaraderie that is freewheeling and frank, with many painfully relatable moments
